Abstract
The properties of squeezing, in relation to the different interaction frequencies of the input modes in three-mode Kerr nonlinear coupler consisting of two linearly-coupled Kerr waveguides, were explored. Utilizing the exact representation of a set of noisy-stochastic equations, an investigation was made of the first-order properties of squeezing for two- and three-mode interactions with frequency mismatch. It was observed that enhanced squeezing could be obtained under certain conditions of interactions.
