The effect of finite bandwidth squeezed light on entanglement creation in the Dicke model by Messikh Azeddine, Azeddine, Wahiddin, Mohamed Ridza, Pah, Chin Hee, Ficek, Zbigniew

We find that the jump of the degree of entanglement is due to a flip of the spin squeezing from one quadrature component of the atomic spin to the other component when the phase changes from zero to π. …”
