By the use of coherent and squeezed thermal states formalism, we analyzed the phenomena of particle creation when coherently oscillating a homogeneous scalar field (Inflaton) in semi-classical gravity. We also obtained an estimated solution for the semi-classical Einstein equation in non-classical thermal states formalism perturbatively, which is similar to the power-law expansion of classical Einstein equation. This solution, apart from a particular condition, shows oscillatory behavior in nature. We also analyzed a coherently oscillating homogeneous scalar field, in a thermal vacuum, coherent thermal, squeezed thermal vacuum and coherent squeezed thermal states, suffering from particle creation, and created particles are showing oscillatory behavior. Particle production can be raised due to thermal and quantum effects. We also studied quantum fluctuations of a homogeneous scalar field in the above-mentioned non-classical thermal states.
