Quantum interference of multimode two-photon pairs with a Michelson interferometer

Quantum Physics 2008-06-27 v1

Abstract

We experimentally observe the two-photon interference of multimode photon pairs produced by an optical parametric oscillator far below threshold via a michelson interferometer, which shows a multipeaked structure. We find that the correlation function when the interferometer is unbalanced is clearly dependent on the path difference and phase between two interfering beams, but the shape of correlation function in balanced case is independent on the small path difference and phase beside the height. All experimental results are well agreed with the theoretical prediction.
