Abstract

We study the properties of wave-packet states with vortex structure. In particular we present the characteristics of a two-mode radiation field characterized by a configuration-space wave function Ψ v =(x-iy) m e- (x 2 +y 2 ) /2σ 2 . We show the generation of such states by the interaction of Λ systems with squeezed radiation in a two-mode cavity. The two modes are correlated due to entanglement, which also produces the mixed state of each mode even though the state of the two-mode field is a pure state.
