Based on the |λ> representation and the radius–phase description of an electron's orbit track in a uniform magnetic field, we introduce the phase operator and derive the minimum uncertainty states for the angular-momentum–phase uncertainty relation. The derivation makes full use of the newly constructed |l, r> representation which is the common eigenvector of the angular momentum Lz and the radius operator (K- - iΠ+)(K+ + iΠ-).

Based on Feynman's explanation that a Cooper pair is "a bound pair act as a Bose particle", we propose a bosonic phase operator formalism and a bosonic Hamiltonian model for Josephson junction. The Cooper pair number — phase uncertainty relation is thus established. The corresponding minimum uncertainty state is derived which turns out to be a phase state.

We study the minimum uncertainty relation obeyed by the phase operator [Formula: see text] in two-mode coherent state. The operator is suitable for Shapiro–Wagner heterodyne phase measurement scheme. It is due to the |ξ> representation (see Eq. (4)) that the difficulty brought by nonlinear square root operation in [Formula: see text] can be avoided in calculating miscellaneous expectation values. Just as the single-mode coherent state | z1> makes uncertainty relation, satisfied by S–G phase operator, minimum for large |z1|2, we show that |z1,z2> makes uncertainty relation obeyed by [Formula: see text] minimum when |z1|=|z2| is large enough. Some figures are plotted to support our conclusion.

By comparison with the Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen coordinate-momentum entangled state, which is the common eigenvector of two particles' relative coordinate and total momentum, we construct a new quantum mechanical entangled state representation, namely, the entangled state representation of angular-momentum and radius. A concrete physical system which can embody the new quantum entanglement is analyzed.

By introducing the angular momentum-phase Wigner operator both in <λ| representation and <l,r| representation, which are respectively the eigenstates of position and angular momentum of an electron in a uniform magnetic field, we establish the angular momentum-phase Wigner function whose marginal distributions are physically meaningful.

Based on Ban's phase operator formalism, we introduce the interaction Hamiltonian for studying relative-number-phase uncertainty relation. The time evolutions for the relative-number and phase operators are also discussed.
