Abstract

An optical Schrodigner's cat state is generated in 500.6 MHz double sideband mode of continuous wave light. We used phase modulation to selectively subtract a photon from sideband. The reconstructed Wigner function exhibits a significant negativity of-0.088 ± 0.001 without any correction.
