Squeezed states of the Jaynes-Cummings model and their excitation in parametric processes

É. M. Verlan, Margarita A. Razumova · Optics and Spectroscopy · 2002

Squeezed states of the Jaynes-Cummings (JC) model are constructed and the statistical properties of the field oscillator in these states are studied. The presence of interaction between the field oscillator and the atom results in the appearance of slow temporal variations in the average values of the dynamic quantities. Two cases essentially differ: When only one of two modes of the JC model is excited, the variations in time, in particular, of the average value of the coordinate are governed by the mode anharmonicity. In the case when both modes of the JC model with close frequencies are excited, the temporal variations represent collapse and revival of oscillations with the frequency $$2k\sqrt {n + 1} $$ , where k is the constant of the atom-field oscillator interaction and n is the number of photons. The constructed squeezed vacuum states are not two-photon states, because the probability of finding an odd number of photons is not equal to zero and varies with time.
