• Abstract: Quantum imaging with undetected photons (QIUP) is a unique method of image acquisition where the photons illuminating the object are not detected. This method relies on quantum interference and spatial correlations between the twin photons to form an image. Here we present a detailed study of the resolution limits of position correlation enabled QIUP. We establish a quantitative relation between the spatial resolution and the twin photon position correlation in the spontaneous parametric down-conversion process (SPDC). Furthermore, we also quantitatively establish the roles that the wavelength of the undetected illumination field and the wavelength of the detected field play in the resolution. Like ghost imaging and unlike conventional imaging, the resolution limit imposed by the spatial correlation between twin photons in QIUP cannot be further improved by conventional optical techniques.

  We show that engineered loss, using an auxiliary waveguide, allows one to invert the spatial statistics from bunching to antibunching. We study the photon statistics within the loss-emulating channel and observe photon coincidences, which may provide insights into the design of quantum photonic integrated chips.

  Multi-photon interference is at the heart of photonic quantum technologies. Here, we experimentally demonstrate that detection can be implemented with a temporal resolution sufficient to interfere photons detuned on the scales necessary for cavity-based integrated photon sources. We show how time-resolved detection of non-ideal photons can be used to improve the fidelity of an entangling operation and to mitigate the reduction of computational complexity in boson sampling experiments.

  Quantum imaging with undetected photons relies on the principle of induced coherence without induced emission. We investigate the transverse resolution of this non-local imaging scheme through a general formalism. We conclude that this result is also valid for other non-local two-photon imaging schemes.

  We study a system of two interacting, non-indentical quantum emitters driven by a coherent field. We show that the features imprinted by the two-photon dynamics into the spectrum of resonance fluorescence are particularly sensitive to changes in the distance between emitters. This can be exploited for applications such as superresolution imaging of point-like sources.

• Coherently controlled quantum features in a coupled interferometric scheme [0.0]
  In an interferometric scheme, anticorrelation results from photon bunching based on randomness when entangled photon pairs impinge on a beam splitter. In this paper, the origin of quantum features in a coupled interferometric scheme is investigated using pure coherence optics. A deterministic method of entangled photon-pair generation is proposed for on-demand coherence control of quantum processing.

We generate highly entangled photon pairs at telecom wavelength that we characterise via two-photon interference and quantum state tomography, achieving near-unity visibilities and fidelities.
