We have found that, in the intensity-dependent Jaynes-Cummings model, a field initially prepared in a statistical mixture of two coherent states, $|α>$ and $|-α>$, evolves toward a pure state. We have also shown that an even-coherent state turns periodically a into rotated odd-coherent state during the evolution.
We construct a Hamiltonian for the generation of arbitrary pure states of the quantized electromagnetic field. The proposition is based upon the fact that a unitary transformation for the generation of number states has been already found. The general unitary transformation here obtained, would allow the use of nonlinear interactions for the production of pure states. We discuss the applicability of this method by giving examples of generation of simple superposition states. We also compare our Hamiltonian with the one resulting from the interaction of trapped ions with two laser fields.
