Abstract summary: Multiple photon addition and subtraction is mutually compared using one experimental setup. Twin beams with tight spatial correlations detected by an intensified CCD camera with high spatial resolution are used. Up to three photons are added or subtracted to arrive at the nonclassical and non-Gaussian states.

Abstract: Multiple photon addition and subtraction applied to multi-mode thermal and sub-Poissonian fields as well as twin beams is mutually compared using one experimental setup. Twin beams with tight spatial correlations detected by an intensified CCD camera with high spatial resolution are used to prepare the initial fields. Up to three photons are added or subtracted to arrive at the nonclassical and non-Gaussian states. Only the photon-subtracted thermal states remain classical. In general, the experimental photon-added states exhibit greater nonclassicality and non-Gaussianity than the comparable photon-subtracted states. Once photons are added or subtracted in twin beams, both processes result in comparable properties of the obtained states owing to twin-beam photon pairing.

Experimental preparation of multiphoton-added coherent states of light [0.0]
Conditional addition of photons is a crucial tool for optical quantum state engineering. We demonstrate the addition of one, two, and three photons to input coherent states with various amplitudes. Results pave the way towards the experimental realization of complex optical quantum operations.

Quantum vortices of strongly interacting photons [52.131490211964014]
Vortices are hallmark of nontrivial dynamics in nonlinear physics. We report on the realization of quantum vortices resulting from a strong photon-photon interaction in a quantum nonlinear optical medium. For three photons, the formation of vortex lines and a central vortex ring attests to a genuine three-photon interaction.

Super-resolution enhancement in bi-photon spatial mode demultiplexin [0.0]
Imaging systems measuring intensity in the far field succumb to Rayleigh's curse, a resolution limitation dictated by the finite aperture of the optical system. Many proof-of-principle and some two-dimensional imaging experiments have shown that, by using spatial mode demultiplexing (SPADE), the field information collected is maximal.

Probing many-body correlations using quantum-cascade correlation spectroscopy [0.0]
The radiative quantum cascade, i.e. the consecutive emission of photons from a ladder of energy levels, is of fundamental importance in quantum optics. Here, we use exciton polaritons to explore the cascaded emission of photons in the regime where individual transitions of the ladder are not resolved. Remarkably, the measured photon-photon correlations exhibit a strong dependence on the polariton energy, and therefore on the underlying polaritonic interaction strength.

Multiphoton Correlations between Quantum Images [0.8701566919381222]
Experimental demonstrations of entangled quantum images produced through parametric downconversion have so far been confined to studying two photon correlations. Here we show that multiphoton correlations between quantum images are accessible experimentally and exhibit many new features including being sensitive to the phase of the bi-photon wavefunction.

Un-symmetric photon subtraction: a method for generating high photon number states and their relevance to loss estimation at ultimate quantum limit [0.0]
We have studied theoretical un-symmetric multi-photon subtracted twin beam state and demonstrated a method for generating states that resembles to high photon number states. A crucial point is high non-classicality is obtained by photon subtraction when mean photons per mode of twin beam state is low.

Two-photon resonance fluorescence of two interacting non-identical quantum emitters [77.34726150561087]
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.

We investigate the probabilities of detecting single- and multi-photon coherent states on InGaAs/InP sine-gated and free-run avalanche diodes. We conclude that multi-photon state detection cannot be regarded as independent events of absorption of individual single-photon states.
