Q 60: Quantum Information: Photons and Nonclassical Light 2

Q 60.6: Talk

Friday, March 18, 2011, 11:45–12:00, SCH 251

Entangled photons in a disordered waveguide — •Frank Schlawin, Nicolas Cherroret, and Andreas Buchleitner — Institute of phyiscs, Albert-Ludwigs University of Freiburg, Hermann-Herder-Str. 3, 79104 Freiburg, Germany

In this talk, we will consider the propagation of non-classical light through a quasi one-dimensional, disordered waveguide. We will investigate the interplay between the classical noise originating from the disorder, and the quantum properties of the radiation. In particular, we will show that strongly non-classical features of the light, such as entanglement, may have a tremendous impact on the statistical distribution of the coincidence rate measured in transmission (the "two-photon speckle").
