Quantum Statistical Properties of Mixed Degenerate and Non-degenerate Parametric Processes

Abstract

Quadrature and integrated intensity fluctuations are found for mixed degenerate and non-degenerate optical parametric processes in single and compound modes. Additionally to quantum statistical effects for single processes new phenomena can occur arising from the coupling of both the processes, which can support squeezing of vacuum fluctuations and sub-Poisson photon statistics in single and compound modes.
