Measurement-induced nonclassical state from two-mode squeezed vacuum states via beam splitter and its entanglement properties

A theoretical scheme of generating a new kind of two-mode non-Gaussian entangled state is presented by means of beam splitters (BSs) and conditional measurement. Here, after detecting photon numbers at the output port of each BS with two kinds of two-mode squeezed vacuum-state inputs, the output state is proved to be two-variable Hermite polynomial excited squeezed vacuum states. Its success probability of detection, namely, normalization factor, is derived in compact expression related to the Jacobi polynomials. Based on the general expression of expectation value, the statistical properties are discussed by exploring the cross-correlation function and anti-bunching effect. The entanglement properties are also investigated by using the Shchukin-Vogel criteria and Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen correlation. The results show that the entanglement of the output state can be enhanced with the increasing photon detection number under the condition of simultaneously detecting the same photon number at the two output ports, which may have good potential for applications in the field of quantum information processing.
