Experimental Demonstration of Radio‐Frequency Hong‐Ou‐Mandel Interference With Emulated Single‐Photon States

open access: yesAdvanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
We report an experimental demonstration of room‐temperature Hong–Ou–Mandel interference at a radio‐wave frequency of 120 MHz using emulated single‐photon states conditionally built from classical phase‐averaged coherent states. Our technique and results open the door to realizing quantum protocols in frequency ranges where standard quantum technologies
