✦ Synopsis


Nonclassical features of the superposition of two coherent states which are p/2 out of phase are discussed, such as sub-Poissonian photon statistics and quadrature squeezing, as well as negativity of the Wigner function. Special nonclassicality is found in the special state where the relative phase of superposition has relationship with the average photon number. The analysis of the amount of entanglement is also presented for the related two-mode entangled coherent states.
