Abstract

We build sub-Poissonian statistics for the amplitude squeezed light and super-Poissonian statistics for the thermal light in spontaneous parametric down-conversion using a photo detector and an oscilloscope.

Heralded single photon sources (HSPSs) from spontaneous parametric down-conversion are widely used as single photon sources. We study the photon number statistics of an HSPS carrying orbital angular momentum in our laboratory and observe the sub-Poissonian statistics using only photodetectors and an oscilloscope.

Abstract In the previous chapter we studied how light beams can be classified according to their photon statistics. We saw that the observation of Poissonian and super Poissonian statistics could be explained by classical wave theory, but not sub Poissonian statistics. Hence sub-Poissonian statistics is a clear signature of the photon nature of light.
