Abstract

We have studied the photon statistics of a nondegenerate two-photon laser with a medium that has both self- and cross-Kerr interactions as well as intensity-dependent atom-field coupling in the Hamiltonian. The density matrix equation of the atoms and two-mode cavity fields was derived using the standard Scully-Lamb approach and numerically solved. Under certain conditions, the photon distribution function equation was derived and solved analytically. The first few moments of photon numbers were calculated in the region above the lasing threshold. Nonclassicality of the fields was investigated by means of the Mandel Q parameter, second-order correlation functions and the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality. The results are analyzed for a range of finite Kerr parameters. Intensity-dependent coupling suppresses the nonclassicality of the field. It pushes the statistics of the field towards super-Poissonian.The self- and cross-Kerr interactions have significant roles in the nonclassicality of the two-photon cavity field and its statistics. These results are interesting for the field of quantum nonlinear optics and useful in quantum communications.
