论文摘要
光子数分解探测器是量子光学元件的最终测量，这就是为什么开发该技术近年来引起大幅关注的原因。因此，如何评估检测器的性能。我们建议可以通过将光子数检测器与在实际情况下的on-Off检测器的多重多重探测器进行比较来评估。在这里，准备状态的质量和制剂的概率都受到多重探测器数量的限制，这使我们能够设置可以通过光子数分辨率分析检测器来实现或超过的基准测试。
Photon number resolving detectors are the ultimate measurement of quantum optics, which is the reason why developing the technology is getting significant attention in recent years. With this arises the question of how to evaluate the performance of the detectors. We suggest that performance of a photon number detector can be evaluated by comparing it to a multiplex of on-off detectors in a practical scenario: conditional preparation of a photon number state. Here, both the quality of the prepared state and the probability of the preparation are limited by the number of on-off detectors in the multiplex, which allows us to set benchmarks that can be achieved or surpassed by the photon number resolving detectors.
