Lattice topology dictates photon statistics [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 Propagation of coherent light through a disordered network is accompanied by randomization and possible conversion into thermal light. Here, we show that network topology plays a decisive role in determining the statistics of the emerging field if the ...

Non-Poissonian photon statistics from macroscopic photon cutting materials [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2017 Photon-cutting materials provide a way around efficiency limits for energy conversion by absorbing high-energy photons and ‘cutting’ them into multiple low-energy excitations.

Transforming photon statistics through zero-photon subtraction [PDF]
Physical Review A, 2023 Zero-photon subtraction (ZPS) is a conditional measurement process that can reduce the mean photon number of quantum optical states without physically removing any photons. Here we show that ZPS can also be used to transform certain super-Poissonian states into sub-Poissonian states, and vice versa.

Towards Measuring Terahertz Photon Statistics by a Superconducting Bolometer [PDF]
Sensors, 2021 Statistical distributions of the analog readings of an antenna-coupled THz superconducting bolometer were measured and analyzed under a special type of irradiation by low-energy fluxes of THz photons with Poisson photon statistics and controllable mean ...

Non-stationary statistics and formation jitter in transient photon condensation [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2020 Description of non-equilibrium phase transitions is problematic, due to the absence of suitable free energy landscapes. Here, the authors experimentally show delayed photon condensation and timing jitter in a dye-filled microcavity, modelled by a non ...

Conventional and Unconventional Photon Statistics [PDF]
Laser & Photonics Reviews, 2020 AbstractThe photon statistics emitted by a large variety of light‐matter systems under weak coherent driving can be understood, to lowest order in the driving, in the framework of an admixture of (or interference between) a squeezed state and a coherent state, with the resulting state accounting for all bunching and antibunching features.

Quenching Statistics of Silicon Single Photon Avalanche Diodes
IEEE Journal of the Electron Devices Society, 2021 The statistical behavior of silicon-based single-photon-avalanche-diodes (SPADs) is investigated by using self-consistent 3-D Monte Carlo simulations.

Photon statistics without counting photons [PDF]
Physical Review A, 2004 We show how to obtain the photon distribution of a single-mode field using only avalanche photodetectors. The method is based on measuring the field at different quantum efficiencies and then inferring the photon distribution by maximum-likelihood estimation. The convergence of the method and its robustness against fluctuations are illustrated by means
