Abstract
Abstract We study the temporal dynamics of a photon-added SU(2) coherent state, involving vibrational bound states of an Iodine molecule. The nonclassicality of Schrodinger cat-like and compass-like photon-added states of this anharmonic potential is explored through Mandel Q parameter and the negative region in their phase spaces. The Wigner phase space distribution is thoroughly studied for the photon added molecular state and displayed for cat- and compass-like states. Generation and control of the sub-Planck interference structures become intriguing with photon addition. We ensure that the photon addition helps to improve the quantum sensitivity for a diatomic molecular system by comparing it between photon-added and photon-subtracted states. The detailed study of quantum sensitivity reveals that, one can use a photon-added molecular wave packet as a probe to attain sensitivity to displacement, that greatly exceeds the standard quantum limit. We also report that the nature of variation of the quantum sensitivity becomes qualitatively commensurate with that of the Wigner-negativity.
