Quantum coherence and entangled states in intracavity third subharmonic generation process

Resumo

The dynamics of correlation of photon number fluctuations of interacting modes for the process of intracavity third subharmonic generation is investigated. It is shown that the entangled field states by the variables of photon number can be obtained in this system. The quantum dynamics of the photons number, the quantum entropy and the Wigner function of the stationary states of the fundamental mode and the third subharmonic mode have also been studied. It is found that the dynamics of these quantities depends highly on the value of the coupling coefficient of the interacting modes. It is shown that at long interaction times and for the large values of the coupling coefficient of the modes, the mode of the third subharmonic is localized in the three-component state with the same probability of detection of the mode in each component of the state. The quantum entropy of the state is less than the maximal entropy of the three-component state ln3, which points out the presence of quantum mechanical interference between the components of the state of third subharmonic mode.
