Topic: 

Measuring Quantum Correlations with Imperfect Photoncounters

Description: 

Abstract:

 

The recent emergence of photon-number-resolving detectors
(PNRDs) makes the characterization of multiphoton states via
photoncounting possible. Here I will discuss several popular types of
PNRDs and show how we can model realistic PNRDs using positive-operator
valued measures. I apply this model to the measurement of quantum
correlations and the calibration of these PNRDs
