Temperature-anisotropy conjugate magnon squeezing in antiferromagnets

Abstract

Quantum squeezing is an essential asset in the field of quantum science and technology. In this study, we investigate the impact of temperature and anisotropy on squeezing of quantum fluctuations in two-mode magnon states within uniaxial antiferromagnetic materials. Through our analysis, we discover that the inherent nonlinearity in these bipartite magnon systems gives rise to a conjugate magnon squeezing effect across all energy eigenbasis states, driven by temperature and anisotropy. We show that temperature induces amplitude squeezing, whereas anisotropy leads to phase squeezing. In addition, we observe that the two-mode squeezing characteristic of magnon eigenenergy states is associated with amplitude squeezing. This highlights the constructive impact of temperature and the destructive impact of anisotropy on two-mode magnon squeezing. Nonetheless, our analysis shows that the destructive effect of anisotropy is bounded. We demonstrate this by showing that, at a given temperature, the squeezing of the momentum (phase) quadrature (or equivalently, the stretching of the position (amplitude) quadrature) approaches a constant function of anisotropy after a finite value of anisotropy. Moreover, our study demonstrates that higher magnon squeeze factors can be achieved at higher temperatures, smaller levels of anisotropy, and closer to the Brillouin zone center. All these characteristics are specific to low-energy magnons in the uniaxial antiferromagnetic materials that we examine here.
