A pair of conjugate observables, such as the quadrature amplitudes of harmonic motion, have fundamental fluctuations which are bound by the Heisenberg uncertainty relation. However, in a squeezed quantum state, fluctuations of a quantity…
High-Q optical microresonators combine low losses and high optical energy concentration in a small effective mode volume, making them an attractive platform for optical sensors. While light is confined in the microresonator by total…

Squeezed states of the optical field were theoretically described in the early 1970s and first observed in the mid 1980s. The measured photon number of a squeezed state is correlated with the measured photon numbers of all other squeezed…
