Abstract
A scheme for measuring squeezing in resonance fluorescence from a single trapped and cooled ion is proposed, which is based on the observation of photon pair correlations after beating the fluorescence with a local oscillator. In addition to squeezing, anomalous moments and sub-Poissoinian photon statistics of the fluorescence contribute to the nonclasical behavior of the light in homodyne detection.Keywords
