Observation of Nonclassical Photon Statistics due to Quantum Interference

Research output: Journal Publications and ReviewsRGC 21 - Publication in refereed journalpeer-review

Abstract

Phase-dependent photon statistics is observed in the mixed field of a narrow band two-photon source and a coherent field. At a certain phase, the nonclassical effect of photon antibunching occurs while at another the photon bunching effect appears. Furthermore, we observed a novel nonclassical phenomenon that exhibits more complex structure. The different features in photon statistics are attributed to a two-photon interference effect. © 2002 The American Physical Society.
