论文摘要
探索了以非常好的时间分辨率（$ \ sim $ nansecond）来检测多个，束束光光子的硅像素相机的用途。我们介绍了相机的特征，并描述了证明其计数功能的实验。我们使用自发的参数下调源来生成相关的光子对，并利用光纤耦合的梁分离器中的hong-ou-mandel干扰效果，以将这对束入同一输出光纤上。结果表明，摄像机的时间和空间分辨率可以独立检测两个空间模式同时出现的光子。
The uses of a silicon-pixel camera with very good time resolution ($\sim$nanosecond) for detecting multiple, bunched optical photons is explored. We present characteristics of the camera and describe experiments proving its counting capabilities. We use a spontaneous parametric down-conversion source to generate correlated photon pairs, and exploit the Hong-Ou-Mandel interference effect in a fiber-coupled beam splitter to bunch the pair onto the same output fiber. It is shown that the time and spatial resolution of the camera enables independent detection of two photons emerging simultaneously from a single spatial mode.
