The degenerate parametric amplifier is described by the Hamiltonian:
H=ℏωa†a−iℏχ/2(e(2iωt)a2−e(−2iωt)(a†)2)
Where a and a† as just the operators of creation and anhiquilation and χ is just a real constant.
If we define the quadratures as:
X1=a+a† ; X2=a−a†
How can we calculate the quadratic fluctuations (uncertainties) of these quadratures? In particular, I read that they satisfy the equations:
(ΔXi)2(t)=e(2χt)(ΔXi)2(0)
I tried applying the Dirac picture with, as we can easily separate:
H=ℏωa†a⏟H0+−iℏχ/2(e(2iωt)a2−e(−2iωt)(a†)2)⏟H1
Where H0 is just the hamiltonian for the harmonic oscillator (with known solution) and H1 is just a perturbation. This allows to find the equations of motion for a and a†, but I'm not sure how to get the form of (ΔXi)2(t) shown above.
PD: I haven't studied time-dependent perturbation theory so I'm not sure if it's necessary to solve this problem.
