Abstract:
A nonstationary regime of squeezed-light generation by a single-atom laser is investigated. Dependences of the quantum-squeezing parameter and radiation intensity on modulation frequency of the atom–field coupling constant are obtained. It is demonstrated that a resonance appears at the modulation frequency equal to twice the average coupling constant, which leads to a more efficient quantum squeezing in a nonstationary harmonic regime than in the case of a stationary regime for the same values of the relaxation and pump parameters.
