An avalanche-photodiode-based photon-number-resolving detector
Avalanche photodiodes are widely used as practical detectors of single photons. Although conventional devices respond to one or more photons, they cannot resolve the number in the incident pulse or short time interval. However, such photon number resolving detectors are urgently needed for applications in quantum computing, communications and interferometry, as well as for extending the applica...

متن کاملRoom temperature photon number resolving detector for infared wavelengths.
In this paper we present a photon number resolving detector at infrared wavelengths, operating at room temperature and with a large dynamic range. It is based on the up-conversion of a signal at 1559 nm into visible wavelength and on its detection by a thermoelectrically cooled multi-pixel silicon avalanche photodiodode, also known as a Silicon Photon Multiplier. With the appropriate up-convers...

متن کاملPhase-reference monitoring in coherent-state discrimination assisted by a photon-number resolving detector
Phase estimation represents a crucial challenge in many fields of Physics, ranging from Quantum Metrology to Quantum Information Processing. This task is usually pursued by means of interferometric schemes, in which the choice of the input states and of the detection apparatus is aimed at minimizing the uncertainty in the estimation of the relative phase between the inputs. State discrimination...
