DECAY OF QUANTUM COHERENCES UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF A THERMAL HEATBATH - SCHRODINGER CAT STATES AT FINITE TEMPERATURE
, JOURNAL OF MODERN OPTICS, Vol: 39, Pages: {1609-1614}-{1609-1614}, ISSN: 0950-0340Recently several methods have been proposed for generation of superposition (Schrodinger cat) states in microwave cavities. At microwave frequencies thermal photons can significantly affect statistical properties of superposition states. In the present letter we study the influence of a thermal heatbath on non-classical properties of quantum superposition states. We show that at non-zero temperatures the loss of quantum coherences is much faster than at zero temperature and that the sensitivity of the quantum coherence to the presence of thermal photons can lead to some difficulties in the preparation of Schrodinger cat states in microwave cavities unless the temperature of the microwave cavity is sufficiently low.

Scheme for direct observation of the Wigner characteristic function in cavity QED
, PHYSICAL REVIEW A, Vol: 58, Pages: {R65-R68}-{R65-R68}, ISSN: 1050-2947We suggest a quantum state reconstruction scheme. Our proposal is applicable to the field inside a microwave cavity as well as to the harmonic motion of a trapped atom. It will be shown that the inversion of two-level atoms after a resonant interaction with a coherently displaced quantum state is directly related to the Wigner characteristic function of the initial state. This method neither requires the preparation of atoms in a quantum superposition of the upper and lower energy levels nor heavy numerical processing of the measured data. We demonstrate the reconstruction scheme for the example of a Schrodinger-cat superposition state.

Quantum noise in optical beam propagation in distributed amplifiers
, OPTICS COMMUNICATIONS, Vol: 130, Pages: {377-384}-{377-384}, ISSN: 0030-4018Quantum effects on optical beam propagation in a gain medium having distributed loss are analyzed using an amplifier-attenuator array model. For the amplifier-attenuator set, the Wigner function of the output field is related to that of the input field by a convolution law. Using this, we derive the Fokker-Planck equation for the beam propagation in the distributed amplifier with loss, and the added quantum noise is analyzed by solving this equation. When the amplification just compensates the attenuation, the mean amplitude of the signal does not change but the mean energy increases due to the added noise. Even in this case, the photon number variance can be reduced when a proper phase-sensitive reservoir is incorporated.

Squeezing and antisqueezing in homodyne measurements
, PHYSICAL REVIEW A, Vol: 53, Pages: {3694-3697}-{3694-3697}, ISSN: 1050-2947Squeezing the signal field or the local oscillator can improve the accuracy of homodyne detection. We show that an equivalence exists between antisqueezing the signal field and squeezing the local oscillator state. The importance of this result is illustrated in two contexts: a homodyne measurement of squeezing and the reconstruction of the wave function.

Quasiprobabilities and the nonclassicality of fields
, PHYSICAL REVIEW A, Vol: 53, Pages: {502-506}-{502-506}, ISSN: 1050-2947The existence of positive well-defined quasiprobabilities is known to be related to the measure of nonclassicality for a given field state. We test the coincidence of the loss of well-known nonclassical properties with the appearance of the positive well-defined quasiprobabilities for various fields influenced by phase-insensitive reservoirs. For Gaussian fields the appearance of a positive Glauber-Sudarshan P function coincides with the loss of nonclassical properties in quadrature fluctuations and in photon statistics. We find that when an initial Fock state dissipates or is amplified the initial field loses its nonclassicality in photon statistics before the P function becomes positive, which is different from the Gaussian field. The Wigner function may be positive even when the decaying Fock state is sub-Poissonian. For the amplification of the Pock state, however, the Wigner function is positive only when the field is super-Poissonian. For the dissipation and amplification of the Fock state the point when a certain quasiprobability function becomes positive definite depends only on the average number of photons N of the heat bath.

PHASE-SENSITIVE RESERVOIR MODELED BY BEAM-SPLITTERS
, PHYSICAL REVIEW A, Vol: 52, Pages: {2401-2410}-{2401-2410}, ISSN: 1050-2947The superposition of input fields in a lossless beam splitter is studied in the Schrodinger picture by using the convolution of the positive P representations, and the convolution law for these representations is extended to other quasiprobability functions such as the Wigner and Q functions. We show that the reservoir can be modeled by an infinite array of beam splitters, and we use the convolution law and this model to derive the Fokker-Planck equation for a system coupled with a phase-sensitive reservoir. Solving this equation shows that a phase-sensitive attenuation and amplification can be described by the superposition of two independent quantum fields, one of which is the initial signal field and the other the squeezed thermal noise field representing the reservoir.
