In this chapter we discuss nonclassical states of light. These include squeezed states of light, states with sub-Poissonian statistics, two-mode squeezed states, photon antibunching, superpositions of coherent states of light –– these being the Schrödinger-cat states. Also discussed in this chapter are the nonclassical states generated by the addition and subtraction of photons.
