A proposed testbed for detector tomography
H. B. Coldenstrodt-Ronge, J. S. Lundeen, A. Feito +6
Measurement is the only part of a general quantum system that has yet to be characterized experimentally in a complete manner. Detector tomography provides a procedure for doing ju…
Bridging particle and wave sensitivity in a detector of configurable positive operator-valued measures
Graciana Puentes, Jeff S. Lundeen, Matthijs P. A. Branderhorst +3
We report an optical detector with tunable positive operator-valued measures (POVMs). The device is based on a combination of weak-field homodyne techniques and photon-number-resol…
Tailored photon-pair generation in optical fibers
Offir Cohen, Jeff S. Lundeen, Brian J. Smith +3
We experimentally control the spectral structure of photon pairs created via spontaneous four-wave mixing in microstructured fibers. By fabricating fibers with designed dispersion,…
Optimal Quantum Phase Estimation
U. Dorner, R. Demkowicz-Dobrzanski, B. J. Smith +4
By using a systematic optimization approach we determine quantum states of light with definite photon number leading to the best possible precision in optical two mode interferomet…
Heralded Generation of Ultrafast Single Photons in Pure Quantum States
Peter J. Mosley, Jeff S. Lundeen, Brian J. Smith +4
We present an experimental demonstration of heralded single photons prepared in pure quantum states from a parametric downconversion source. It is shown that, through controlling t…
Two-photon wave mechanics
Brian J. Smith, M. G. Raymer
The position-representation wave function for multi-photon states and its equation of motion are introduced. A major strength of the theory is that it describes the complete evolut…
