Abstract:We study distinguishability of photons in multiphoton interference on a multiport when fast detectors, capable of precise time resolution, are employed. Such a setup was previously suggested for experimental realization of boson sampling with single photons. We investigate if fast photodetection allows to circumvent distinguishability of realistic single photons in mixed states. To this goal we compare distinguishability of photons in two setups: (a) with photons in the same average (temporal) profile on a spa… Show more
