The primary objective of this research is to generate squeezed state            light via intracavity four-wave mixing in a resonant atomic vapor, and          to verify the quadrature noise squeezing of this light through optical          detection.  A method is proposed to generate squeezed states, a                 phenomenon which has yet to be physically observed, using degenerative          four-wave mixing.  This phenomenon has no classical analog and is a             pure quantum effect.  This research is experimental in nature to prove          the theory and, if successful, could be significant in important                applications.  There are profound implications in the field of                  communications, computing, and spectroscopy.
