Local Sampling of the Wigner Function at Telecom Wavelength with Loss-Tolerant Detection of Photon Statistics.
We report the experimental point-by-point sampling of the Wigner function for nonclassical states created in an ultrafast pulsed type-II parametric down-conversion source. We use a loss-tolerant time-multiplexed detector based on a fiber-optical setup and a pair of photon-number-resolving avalanche photodiodes. By capitalizing on an expedient data-pattern tomography, we assess the properties of...
متن کاملSampling of the Wigner function adapted to time-multiplexed detection of photon statistics
We investigate the capabilities of loss-tolerant quantum state characterisation based on photon-number resolving detectors. Our emphasis lies on constructing the Wigner function of non-Gaussian Fock states with highly non-classical negative values around the origin of the phase space. We employ the idea of sampling the Wigner function point by point via photon parity measurements instead of usi...
متن کاملProbing the negative Wigner function of a pulsed single photon point by point.
We investigate quantum properties of pulsed light fields point by point in phase space. We probe the negative region of the Wigner function of a single photon generated by the means of waveguided parametric down conversion. This capability is achieved by employing loss-tolerant photon-number resolving detection, allowing us to directly observe the oscillations of the photon statistics in depend...
متن کاملQuantum detector tomography of a single-photon frequency upconversion detection system.
We experimentally presented a full quantum detector tomography of a synchronously pumped infrared single-photon frequency upconversion detector. A maximum detection efficiency of 37.6% was achieved at the telecom wavelength of 1558 nm with a background noise about 1.0 × 10-3 counts/pulse. The corresponding internal quantum conversion efficiency reached as high as 84.4%. The detector ...
متن کاملDirect probing of the Wigner function by time-multiplexed detection of photon statistics
We investigate the capabilities of loss-tolerant quantum state characterization using a photon-number resolving, time-multiplexed detector (TMD). We employ the idea of probing the Wigner function point–by–point in phase space via photon parity measurements and displacement operations, replacing the conventional homodyne tomography. Our emphasis lies on reconstructing the Wigner function of non-...
