Squeezing in a Rydberg atom maser: effect of damping and thermal field
Abstract
The 1/ N expansion of the quantum evolution of the N-Rydberg atom maser is extended to include losses and thermal field effects. Small values for squeezing and subpoissonian statistics for the field are obtained for experimentally realistic Q-values and temperatures.
