Generation of Photon-Number States Using Repetitive Parametric Downconversion and Conditional Measurement
Boris L. Glebov, Jingyun Fan, Alan L. Migdall · 2013
In a Monte Carlo simulation, we feedback with conditional measurements and a multiple-step spontaneous parametric downconversion process to generate number-squeezed photonic states with sub-Poissonian variance. A 12 photon state is demonstrated with a success rate of 30%.
