Eliminating frequency and space-time correlations in multiphoton states
Abstract
Multiphoton states constructed from photon pairs generated in the process of spontaneous parametric down-conversion possess frequency and space-time correlations that may carry undesired distinguishing information. It is shown that these correlations may be eliminated if certain conditions in the source configuration are satisfied. For the cases in which these conditions cannot be satisfied because of experimental constraints, it is shown that the correlations may be reduced through proper choices of crystal length and pump bandwidth. The advantage of such source engineering is that it yields much higher count rates, since no photon pairs are lost by predetection spectral filtering.

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.
