An ultra-sensitive pulsed balanced homodyne detector: Application to time-domain quantum measurements

open access: yes, 2001
A pulsed balanced homodyne detector has been developed for precise measurements of electric field quadratures of pulsed optical quantum states. A high level of common mode suppression (> 85 dB) and low electronic noise (730 electrons per pulse) provide a

Sampling functions for multimode homodyne tomography with a single local oscillator

open access: yes, 2000
We derive various sampling functions for multimode homodyne tomography with a single local oscillator. These functions allow us to sample multimode s-parametrized quasidistributions, density matrix elements in Fock basis, and s-ordered moments of ...

Quantum detector tomography of a single-photon frequency upconversion detection system

open access: yesOptics Express, 2016
We experimentally presented a full quantum detector tomography of a synchronously pumped infrared single-photon frequency upconversion detector. A maximum detection efficiency of 37.6% was achieved at the telecom wavelength of 1558 nm with a background noise about 1.0 × 10-3 counts/pulse. The corresponding internal quantum conversion efficiency reached

Readout error mitigated quantum state tomography tested on superconducting qubits

open access: yesCommunications Physics
Quantum technologies rely heavily on accurate control and reliable readout of quantum systems. Current experiments are limited by numerous sources of noise that can only be partially captured by simple analytical models and additional characterization of

Quantum Detector and Process Tomography: Algorithm Design and Optimisation

open access: yes, 2023
This thesis develops new algorithms and investigates optimisation in quantum detector tomography (QDT) and quantum process tomography (QPT). QDT is a fundamental technique for calibrating quantum devices and performing quantum engineering tasks. We design optimal probe states based on the minimum upper bound of the mean squared error (UMSE) and the ...

Sequential measurement of conjugate variables as an alternative quantum state tomography

open access: yes, 2013
It is shown how it is possible to reconstruct the initial state of a one-dimensional system by measuring sequentially two conjugate variables. The procedure relies on the quasi-characteristic function, the Fourier-transform of the Wigner quasi ...

Time resolution of the plastic scintillator strips with matrix photomultiplier readout for J-PET tomograph

open access: yes, 2016
Recent tests of a single module of the Jagiellonian Positron Emission Tomography system (J-PET) consisting of 30 cm long plastic scintillator strips have proven its applicability for the detection of annihilation quanta (0.511 MeV) with a coincidence ...
