Dataset for manuscript: Observation antibunching with classical light in a linear interferometer

Listed in ScienceDB

Understanding the boundary between classical and nonclassical phenomena is important for both fundamental researches in quantum optics and applications in quantum information.

Description

One of the most interesting research directions in this field is exploring nonclassical effects with classical light. In this paper, we will show that it is possible to observe antibunching with thermal light in a Hanbury Brown-Twiss interferometer by treating single-photon detectors as photon-number-resolving detectors to perform photon-number projection measurements.

Both temporal and spatial antibunching is observed via the correlation of two detectors detecting one and zero photon, respectively. By comparing the measured results of thermal and laser light, it is found that the observed antibunching arises from the combined effect of photon statistics of thermal light and photon-number projection measurement.The classical and nonclassical nature of the observed antibunching is analyzed.
