We wish to report the first experimental demonstration of two-photon “ghost” imaging with a pseudo-thermal source. Similarly to the case of entangled states, a two-photon Gaussian thin lens equation is observed. We introduce the concepts of “two-photon coherent” and “two-photon incoherent” imaging. The differences between the entangled and the thermal cases are explained in terms of these conce...
متن کاملGhost Imaging with Blackbody Radiation
Abstract We present a theoretical study of ghost imaging by using blackbody radiation source. A Gaussian thin lens equation for the ghost imaging, which depends on both paths, is derived. The dependences of the visibility and quality of the image on the transverse size and temperature of the blackbody are studied. The main differences between the ghost imaging by using the blackbody radiation a...
متن کاملThe Physics of Ghost imaging
One of the most surprising consequences of quantum mechanics is the nonlocal correlation of a multi-particle system observable in joint-detection of distant particle-detectors. Ghost imaging is one of such phenomena. Taking a photograph of an object, traditionally, we need to face a camera to the object. But with ghost imaging, we can image the object by pointing a CCD camera towards the light ...
متن کاملRandom Delayed-Choice Quantum Eraser via Two-Photon Imaging
We report on a delayed-choice quantum eraser experiment based on a two-photon imaging scheme using entangled photon pairs. After the detection of a photon which passed through a double-slit, a random delayed choice is made to erase or not erase the which-path information by the measurement of its distant entangled twin; the particle-like and wave-like behavior of the photon are then recorded si...
متن کاملGhost ellipsometry using classical light
This thesis presents a new interferometric technique for the measurement of ellipsometric information by the means of classical ghost imaging. The technique relies on the use of light from a classical, spatially incoherent source with Gaussian statistics. The standard ghost-imaging configuration is modified for reflection measurements and polarizers are added to control the state of polarizatio...
