Abstract

This work consists in a generalization of the developed method to measure the quantum state of the field in a cavity with all non null coefficients, in the number representation, through one photon interaction. We present a strategy to measure the quantum state of the field when it has all non-null coefficients or only even or odd coefficients through a two-photons atom-field interaction.
