Abstract

We study simultaneous Hong-Mandel's higher-order squeezing of the two quadrature components by considering Hermitian operator, X0 = X1 cosθ + X2 sinθ, in the most general superposition state |Ψ)=Z1α)+Z2|β) of two coherent states |α) and |β). Here, Hermitian operators X1, 2 are defined by X1 + iX2 = a, a is the annihilation operator, is an arbitrary angle, Z1, Z2, α and β are arbitrary complex numbers and the only restriction on these is the normalization condition of the superposed coherent states. We conclude that simultaneous Hong-Mandel's higher-order squeezing of both quadrature components with equal minimum higherorder fluctuations occurs for an infinite number of combinations of parameters Z1, Z2, α, β and θ. Variations of higher-order fluctuations with intensity parameter have also been discussed.
