Cavity-based quantum networks with single atoms and optical photons (2014, background): “The generated mixed state of the light field can be fully reconstructed when it is interfered with a classical laser field with well-known properties, a technique known as homo- or heterodyning (see e.g. (Agarwal, 2013; Lvovsky and Raymer, 2009).”
5. Squeezed Light (2014, positive): “However small the degree of squeezing may be, even a single squeezed resource permits producing a wide variety of complex optical states [16, 45].”
Nonlinear optical signals and spectroscopy with quantum light (2016, background): “An exhaustive review of continuous variable entanglement theory can be found in a number of specialized reviews (Kok et al., 2007; Lvovsky and Raymer, 2009).”
Quantum interface between light and atomic ensembles (2008, background): “On the other hand, the state of the atomic memory in protocols which use a, a† representation can be conveniently analyzed by atomic tomography in the X,P basis (Fernholz et al., 2008; Sherson et al., 2006b) (for a recent review on quantum tomography see (Lvovsky and Raymer, 2009).”
Remote creation of hybrid entanglement between particle-like and wave-like optical qubits (2013, methodology): “The density matrix of the state is then reconstructed via a maximum likelihood algorithm [30].”
Efficient quantum state tomography. (2010, background): “The full determination of the quantum state of a system, known as quantum state tomography [1], has already been achieved by measuring a complete set of observables whose expectation values determine the quantum state [2–7].”
Quantum-optical state engineering up to the two-photon level (2009, methodology): “This ensured indistinguishability of the three optical modes in the idler channel, as well as preparation of the signal state in a pure spatiotemporal mod”
Metrology of single-photon sources and detectors: a review (2014, background): “The probability distribution of the quadrature operators is demonstrated to be just the Radon transformation of the Wigner function of the quantum optical state.(142,143) In principle, quantum tomography allows perfect reconstruction of the state in the limit of an infinite number of measurements.”
Blueprint for a Scalable Photonic Fault-Tolerant Quantum Computer (2020, background): “Moreover, qubit Pauli measurements correspond simply to homodyne measurements, which operate at faster speeds and higher efficiencies than photon-counting detectors [45, 60].”
Enlargement of optical Schrödinger's cat states (2016, methodology): “The reconstruction of both the initial and amplified SC states is performed using the iterative maximumlikelihood algorithm [28, 29].”
