Abstract

The phase properties of the superposed squeezed states are studied. The superposed squeezed states are obtained by inserting two squeezers in a Mach-Zehnder interferometer one for each arm. The visibility of the states as a measure of the coherence of the generated photons in the nonlinear interferometer is analyzed. And the mean-square phase fluctuations are also considered to analyze the phase properties of the superposed squeezed states. The quantities are obtained as a function of gain and the input phase, when the amplified input is a coherent state, a number state, a thermal state, a displaced number state, or a coherent thermal state.
