Abstract
We study higher-order antibunching of light and the possibility of observing it in all modes in two and three-photon absorption seven-photon interaction processes. We solve the generalized interaction Hamiltonian for several particular cases in the Heisenberg picture and investigate the possibility of observing antibunching using the short-time approximation technique. We demonstrate that the antibunching of light in the initial pump field is directly dependent on coupling of the field between the modes and short-time interaction, as well as the quantity of photons. With the same number of photons, we find that the third-order antibunching is more prominent, followed by the second-and-first-order antibunching. In these systems, we discover that antibunching is not observed for the Stokes and signal modes in this process. We show that a higher-multiphoton-absorption technique is the best for producing optimum antibunched light.
