Unbalanced homodyning for quantum state measurements

Wallentowitz, S., Vogel, W.·1996·Physical Review A

Abstract

We propose the reconstruction of the quantum state of light from the homodyne photocounting statistics of a single, realistic photodetector. Contrary to the development of homodyning over the last decade, our approach is based on unbalanced detection with a weak local oscillator. Representing the quantum state in terms of s-parametrized quasiprobability distributions, the method even allows one to determine the Wigner function provided the quantum efficiency of the detector is sufficiently large. We show that perturbing effects due to classical noise of the local oscillator are small. \textcopyright{} 1996 The American Physical Society.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
