Manipulating nonclassical quantum statistical properties of light field by an f-deformed Bose–Einstein condensate

Abstract

We consider the interaction between an f-deformed Bose–Einstein condensate and a single-mode quantized light field. By using the Gardiner’s phonon operators, we find that there exists a natural deformation in the model which modifies the Bogoliubov approximation under the condition of large but finite number of particles in condensate. This approach introduces an intrinsically deformed Bose–Einstein condensate, where the deformation parameter, well-defined by the particle number N in condensate, controls the strength of the associated nonlinearity. By introducing the deformed Gardiner’s phonon operators we modify the very dilute-gas approximation through including atomic collisions in condensate. The rate of atomic collisions κ , as a new deformation parameter in the deformed Bose–Einstein condensate, controls the nonlinearity related to the atomic collisions. We show that by controlling the nonlinearities in the f-deformed atomic condensate through the two atomic parameters N and κ , it is possible to generate and manipulate the nonclassical quantum statistical properties of radiation field, such as, the sub-Poissonian photon statistics and quadrature squeezing. Also, it is possible to control the collapses and revivals phenomena in the average number of photons by atomic parameters N and κ .
