Absolute efficiency estimation of photon-number-resolving detectors using twin beams.
A nonclassical light source is used to demonstrate experimentally the absolute efficiency calibration of a photon-number-resolving detector. The photon-pair detector calibration method developed by Klyshko for single-photon detectors is generalized to take advantage of the higher dynamic range and additional information provided by photon-number-resolving detectors. This enables the use of brig...
متن کاملassessment of the efficiency of s.p.g.c refineries using network dea
data envelopment analysis (dea) is a powerful tool for measuring relative efficiency of organizational units referred to as decision making units (dmus). in most cases dmus have network structures with internal linking activities. traditional dea models, however, consider dmus as black boxes with no regard to their linking activities and therefore do not provide decision makers with the reasons...
Measuring absolute number concentrations of nanoparticles using single-particle tracking.
Single-particle tracking (SPT) microscopy is increasingly used to characterize nanoparticulate systems. We introduce a concept for estimation of particle number concentration in Brownian particle dispersions using SPT based on a model for the trajectory length distribution of particles to estimate the detection region volume. The resulting method is independent of precalibration reference measu...
متن کاملAbsolute efficiency and time-response measurement of single-photon detectors.
Using correlated photons from spontaneous parametric downconversion, we have measured both the absolute quantum efficiencies and the time responses of four single-photon detectors. Efficiencies as high as (76.4 ± 2.3)% (at 702 nm) were seen, which to our knowledge are the highest reported single-photon detection efficiencies. An auxiliary retroreflection mirror was found to increase the net det...
متن کاملMeasuring capital market efficiency: Correlations structure, crowd behavior and uncertainty
We introduce a new measure for capital market efficiency. The measure takes into consideration the correlation structure of the returns (long-term memory), local herding behavior (information dimension) and uncertainty in the process (entropy). The efficiency measure is then taken as a distance from an ideal efficient market situation. Methodology is applied to a portfolio of 41 stock indices. ...
