Non-classical properties of quantum wave packets propagating in a Kerr-like medium

Quantum Physics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

We investigate non-classical effects such as fractional revivals, squeezing and higher-order squeezing of photon-added coherent states propagating through a Kerr-like medium.The Wigner functions corresponding to these states at the instants of fractional revivals are obtained, and the extent of non-classicality quantified.
