Homodyne detection of Kerr states
Pavel Honzátko · Quantum and Semiclassical Optics Journal of the European Optical Society Part B · 1997
The quantum state of light is found at the output ports of a beamsplitter when both its input ports are in a Kerr state. Statistical properties of this combined state are studied and the photocount distribution of a nonideal photodetector and the output signal of a homodyne receiver are calculated and discussed.
