Joint multipartite photon statistics by on/off detection
arXiv:quant-ph/0606201 · doi:10.1364/OL.31.003508
Abstract
We demonstrate a method to reconstruct the joint photon statistics of two or more modes of radiation using on/off photodetection performed at different quantum efficiencies. The two-mode case is discussed in details and experimental results are presented for the bipartite states obtained after a beam-splitter fed by a single photon state or a thermal state.
