Intermediate number-squeezed state of the quantized radiation field

Following previous strategies by Stoler et al. which introduced the binomial state and Baseia et al. which introduced the intermediate number phase state, we introduce a new intermediate state of the quantized radiation field, which reduces to the number state and squeezed state in two different limits. This interpolating state exhibits nonclassical effects as sub-Poissonian, antibunching and squeezing, obtained from the corresponding expressions as function of the interpolating parameters.
