Continuous-wave spatial quantum correlations of light induced by multiple scattering
Publication: Research - peer-review › Journal article – Annual report year: 2012
We present theoretical and experimental results on spatial quantum correlations induced by multiple scattering of nonclassical light. A continuous-mode quantum theory is derived that enables determining the spatial quantum correlation function from the fluctuations of the total transmittance and reflectance. Utilizing frequency-resolved quantum noise measurements, we observe that the strength of the spatial quantum correlation function can be controlled by changing the quantum state of an incident bright squeezed-light source. Our results are found to be in excellent agreement with the developed theory and form a basis for future research on, e. g., quantum interference of multiple quantum states in a multiple scattering medium.
