Suppose a light beam is split in two by a beam splitter. One beam is reflected off
Question:
Suppose a light beam is split in two by a beam splitter. One beam is reflected off an ordinary mirror and the other off a phase-conjugating mirror. The beams are then recombined at the beam splitter. Suppose that the powers returning to the beam splitter are nearly the same; they differ by a fractional amount △P/P = ∈ «1. Show that the recombined light is in a strongly squeezed state, and discuss how one can guarantee it is phase squeezed, or (if one prefers) amplitude squeezed.
