Abstract
With the help of second-order nonlinear interactions and hence Hamiltonian, we construct the equations of motion corresponding to pump and signal (second harmonic) fields in a second harmonic generation. The corresponding coupled differential equations involving the non-commuting field operators are not solvable in closed analytical forms. With the help of a perturbation method, we obtain analytical solutions of these field operators up to cubic orders in the interaction constant. In an appropriate limit (truncating the solution up to the second order in the interaction constant), these solutions lead to the existing solutions under the short-time approximation. The present analytical solutions are exploited to investigate the squeezing and the antibunching of photons of the input coherent light coupled to the said second-order nonlinear medium. We report the squeezing and antibunching effects of the pump field even for solutions up to the second order and hence the present results are consistent with earlier results. However, for the second harmonic mode, we report the squeezing involving the leading cubic term in the interaction constant.
