N2 - Subject of study. Schemes for generating non-Gaussian quantum states and the states required for quantum error correction protocols are investigated. Aim of study. The primary objectives were to generalize methods and approaches for describing the generation of non-Gaussian states in measurement schemes to determine the most effective model for describing the generation process and to assess a model for generating squeezed Fock states and a quantum error correction code based on such states. Method. A theoretical analysis of the wavefunction evolution of various non-Gaussian states in particle-number measurement schemes was performed; in this analysis, squeezed states were used as inputs. Main results. A scheme for generating squeezed Fock states was theoretically examined. An explicit analytical expression for the output wavefunction was constructed to completely analyze the output states depending on the parameters of the scheme under consideration. A set of conditions imposed on the parameters of a two-mode entangled Gaussian state, i.e., the “universal solution regime,” was outlined. This regime guaranteed the generation of squeezed Fock states with a high probability. Practical significance. The results demonstrated the ability of the universal solution regime to generate squeezed Fock states of arbitrary order for a given squeezing parameter. The feasibility of using squeezed Fock states in quantum error correction codes was analyzed. A comparative study of squeezed Fock states and squeezed Schrödinger cat states as codewords confirmed squeezed Fock states as robust solutions to ensure information protection in channels subjected to particle loss and dephasing.
