The possibility of absolute calibration of analog detectors by using parametric down-conversion: a systematical study
Giorgio Brida, Maria Chekhova, Marco Genovese +2
Accurate calibration of photodetectors both in analog and in photon-counting regime is fundamental for various scientific applications, which range from "traditional" quantum optic…
Absolute Quantum Efficiency Measurements by Means of Conditioned Polarization Rotation
Giorgio Brida, Maria Chekhova, Marco Genovese +3
We propose a new scheme for measuring the quantum efficiency of photon counting detectors by using correlated pho-tons. The measurement technique is based on a 90 rotation of the p…
Twin-photon techniques for photo-detector calibration
G. Brida, M. Genovese, M. Gramegna
The aim of this review paper is to enlighten some recent progresses in quantum optical metrology in the part of quantum efficiency measurements of photo-detectors performed with bi…
Limit quantum efficiency for violation of Clauser-Horne Inequality for qutrits
Marco Genovese
In this paper we present the results of numerical calculations about the minimal value of detection efficiency for violating the Clauser - Horne inequality for qutrits. Our results…
Experimental reconstruction of photon statistics without photon counting
M. Bondani, G. Zambra, A. Andreoni +5
Experimental reconstructions of photon number distributions of both continuous-wave and pulsed light beams are reported. Our scheme is based on on/off avalanche photodetection assi…
On tests of local realism by CP-violation parameters of K^0 mesons
Marco Genovese
Recently various papers have proposed to test local realism (LR) by considering electroweak CP-violation parameters values in neutral pseudoscalar meson systems. Considering the la…
