M Times Photon Subtraction-Addition Coherent Superposition Operated Odd-Schrődinger-cat State: Nonclassicality and Decoherence

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

We introduce a new non-Gaussian state, generated by m times coherent superposition operation acos⁡θ+a†eiφsin⁡θa\cos θ+a^{\dagger }e^{iφ}\sin θ (MCSO) on odd-Schrodinger-cat state (OSCS). Its normalized constant is turned out to be related with the Hermite polynomial. We further investigate the nonclassical properties of the MCSO-OSCS through Mandel's Q-parameter, quadrature squeezing, the photocount distribution and Wigner function (WF). It is shown that the nonclassicality of the MCSO-OSCS is influenced by the number of times (m) of coherent superpositon operation, the angle θθ and the amplitude of the coherent state (|α0α_{0}|). Especially the volume of negative region of WF increases with the increment of parameters m, θθ and α0α_{0}. We also investigate the decoherence of the MCSO-OSCS in terms of the fadeaway of the negativity of WF in a thermal environment.
