Multi-photon interference with pseudo-thermal light — •Florian Nägele, Simeon Müller, and Vincenzo Tamma — Institut für Quantenphysik, Universität Ulm

Multi-photon interference [1] with pseudo-thermal light is a promising new field of research that received increasing attention in recent years. Chen et al. have simulated Bell correlations and Franson-type correlations with a pseudo-thermal source [2,3]. We give a detailed theoretical description of such experiments, in order to describe the main physical aspects behind two-photon interference. Moreover, we generalize such a description to different experimental situations. Our analysis will lead us to the study of multi-photon interferometers of higher orders and the possibilities to exploit such schemes for quantum information processing.
