| Popis: | In this letter, we present a simple and versatile scheme for enhancing the nonclassical properties of light states using only linear optics and photodetectors. By combining a coherent state $|\alpha\rangle$ and an arbitrary pure state of light $|\phi\rangle$ (excluding coherent states) at two beam splitters, we show that the amplitude $\alpha$ of the coherent state can be tuned to filter out specific Fock components and generate states of light with enhanced nonclassical features. We provide two examples of input states and demonstrate the effectiveness of our scheme in enhancing the sub-Poissonian statistics or the quadrature squeezing of the output states.
