By imposing the condition of non-vanishing expectation values for the amplitude and phase of field operators, pure quantum states are identified composed of two consecutive number states.  These pure states also deliver noise-free radiation modes restricting the “half-photon noise” to the expectation value of the lowest level of dynamic and coherent number states. As a result, instantaneous phase-sensitive amplification of photons is easily controlled   and   direct evaluation of time or distance - varying wavefront distributions of photons and phases can be carried out for sub-Poissonian distributions of photons without the need for quasi-probabilities.

A theory of two-photon phase-sensitive amplifier based on two-photon cascade is presented. The atomic coherence is produced by means of two dipole-allowed transitions driven by coherent fields; a practical alternative versus scheme employing coupling between dipole-forbidden levels. The regime of parameters under which a laser signal can be phase locked and amplified is discussed through the corresponding Fokker–Planck equation.
