Superpositions of squeezed displaced Fock states: properties and generation

The s-parametrized characteristic function for the superposition of squeezed displaced Fock states (SDFSs) is given. The s-parametrized distribution functions for the superposition of SDFSs are investigated. Various moments are calculated by using this characteristic function. The Glauber second-order coherence function is calculated. The squeezing properties of the superposition of SDFSs are studied. Analytical and numerical results for the quadrature component distributions for the superposition of a pair of SDFSs are presented. A generation scheme is discussed.
