Revival Time Estimation in the Process of Down Conversion
Igor Jex · Journal of Modern Optics · 1993
We analyse the collapse-revival phenomenon in the process of k-photon down conversion with quantized pump for initial Fock states. We give an explanation for the appearance of the revivals by analysing the decomposition of the initial state into the interaction Hamiltonian eigenvectors. A quantitative estimation of the revival times is given as well.
