Photon time of arrival, time between consecutive photons and the moment generating function

Bahaa E. A. Saleh

The probability densities of the time of arrival of photoelectrons and the time interval between consecutive photoelectrons are respectively proportional to the first and second time derivatives of the moment generating function. Expressions for these densities are given for several classes of optical fields.

Memory in the photon statistics of multilevel quantum systems

Felipe Caycedo‐Soler, Ferney J. Rodríguez, G. Zumofen

The statistics of photons emitted by single multilevel systems is investigated with emphasis on the nonrenewal characteristics of the photon-arrival times. We consider the correlation between consecutive interphoton times and present closed-form expressions for the corresponding multiple-moment analysis. Based on the moments, a memory measure is proposed which provides an easy way of gauging the nonrenewal statistics. Monte Carlo simulations demonstrate that the experimental verification of nonrenewal statistics is feasible.
