  We determine the Rabi oscillations for coherent and squeezed coherent states
via one- and two-photon atomic transitions in two- and three-level atoms,
respectively. The effect of squeezing coherent states is to reduce the large
number of photons of mesoscopic scale to fewer photons and so be able to use
numerical solutions with the aid of the Jaynes-Cummings model. We maximize the
squeezing of the coherent state by minimizing the ratio of the photon number
variance to photon number, thus narrowing the region where revival occurs.
