Abstract
Sum and difference squeezing of the field amplitude are higher-order squeezing effects. These effects are studied in the Raman process under the short-time approximation based on a fully quantum mechanical approach. It is shown that for uncorrelated modes, the normal squeezing in the sum and difference-frequency field depends on the sum and difference squeezing of input field modes respectively, which can generate normal squeezing in the sum and difference-frequency field mode. All the possibilities for obtaining sum and difference squeezing in two modes and its dependence on squeezing of individual field modes are investigated. We have also shown that if the high-frequency mode is in a coherent state and the low-frequency mode is squeezed, the field state will be difference squeezed if the amplitude of the high-frequency mode is large enough; otherwise the state may or may not be difference squeezed. If both modes are squeezed, then the state may or may not be difference squeezed. These higher-order squeezing effects are useful in the production of squeezing in the Raman process.
