Abstract

Squeezed states have attracted quite a lot of attention the last few years. In such states the operators between which the quantum noise is redistributed are the quadrature components âl and â2. While squeezed states may lead to substantial improvements of the sensitivity of precision measurements, specifically in interferometry [1], they may not be optimal for information transmission and processing. Another type of non-classical states of the electromagnetic field are number-phase minimum uncertainty states (NUS).
