- Abstract: The formation of Schrodinger cat-like states during the spontaneous parametric down-conversion process (SPDC) is studied when the pump mode is considered quantum and depleted. The Schrodinger cat-like state is formed in the fundamental and second harmonic modes, and the negativity in both modes is studied for certain initial state conditions and interaction lengths. The Wigner function is used to visualize qualitatively Schrodinger cat-like states.

The underlying atom-field interaction is considered off-resonant and three atoms are successively sent through the cavities.
Entanglement properties of the obtained states are characterized by the Von Neumann entropy.
