Scheme for realizing a photon number amplifier

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

A scheme for realizing a photon number amplifier by use of a high-quantum-efficiency photodetector and a number-state semiconductor laser is analyzed. It is found that the photon number amplifier is not significantly limited by the electronic amplifier noise or by the laser quantum efficiency for input states that are nearly classical.
