Quantum dynamics and statistics of two coupled down-conversion processes

Abstract

In the framework of Heisenberg-Langevin theory the dynamical and statistical effects arising from the linear interaction of two nondegenerate down-conversion processes are investigated. Using the strong-pumping approximation the analytical solution of equations of motion is calculated. The phenomena reminiscent of Zeno and anti-Zeno effects are examined. The possibility of phase-controlled and mismatch-controlled switching is illustrated.
