Theoretical investigation of the quantum noise in ghost imaging
arXiv:quant-ph/0408123 · doi:10.1088/0256-307X/22/7/032
Abstract
Ghost imaging is a method to nonlocally image an object by transmitting pairs of entangled photons through the object and a reference optical system respectively. We present a theoretical analysis of the quantum noise in this imaging technique. The dependence of the noise on the properties of the apertures in the imaging system are discussed and demonstrated with a numerical example. For a given source, the resolution and the signal-to-noise ratio cannot be improved at the same time .
