Suppress the mode label temporarily and let $a,b$ be out-operators. With $q=v/u$, the commuting-mode identityshows that $(a+q{b}^{†})e^{-q{a}^{†}{b}^{†}}|0_{\mathrm{out}}⟩=0$. The analogous relation for $b$ gives the antiparticle condition. Thus in a finite regulated collection of modes,For one particle-antiparticle mode pair, $(a^{†}{b}^{†}{)}^n|0,0⟩=n!|n,n⟩$. The exponential's factorial therefore cancels:The resulting particle-antiparticle two-mode squeezed vacuum has the geometric pair-number distributionHere one pair means one particle in canonical mode $\mathbf{k}$ and one antiparticle in mode $-\mathbf{k}$. They are distinct species, and the state has equal particle and antiparticle occupation. In particular,For a finite set, $|\mathcal{N}|={\prod }_{\mathbf{k}}\sqrt{1-r_{\mathbf{k}}}={\prod }_{\mathbf{k}}|u_{\mathbf{k}}{|}^{-1}$. An overall phase is arbitrary. With no pulse, $\Omega =\omega$, so $v=0$ and only the zero-pair state remains.

The ultraviolet divergence of an instantaneous vector-potential quench qualifies this formal product. For an exactly instantaneous vector-potential step in three spatial dimensions, at large $k$ the mixing behaves as $v_{\mathbf{k}}\sim e{\mathbf{A}}_0\cdot \hat{\mathbf{k}}/(2\hslash k)$. Thus $\int {\mathrm{d}}^{3}k|v_{\mathbf{k}}{|}^2$ diverges in the ultraviolet. In a finite quantization box, a finite momentum cutoff makes the product a normalized Fock-space vector; a sufficiently smooth finite-duration pulse removes this particular instantaneous-quench pathology. The per-mode distribution remains the result above, while the unregulated infinite product should not be asserted to have a finite nonzero global normalization.
