In quantum communication and quantum optics, a photon-number-resolving detector is a very useful device. It can measure, in-line with the experiment, the mean number of photons and real-time controlling photon distributions.

Abstract

In quantum communication and quantum optics, a photon-number-resolving detector is a very useful device. It can measure, in-line with the experiment, the mean number of photons and real-time controlling photon distributions. In this contribution, we tested the reliability of a superconducting nanostrip photon-number-resolving detector with eight pixels to reconstruct, from the measured events, the statistical distribution of photons emitted by light sources with high repetition rate.
