This paper's purpose is to review the results recently obtained in the Quantum Optics labs of the National Institute of Metrological Research (INRIM) in the eld of single- and few-photon detectors calibration, from both the classical and quantum viewpoint. In the rst part of the paper is presented the calibra- tion of a single-photon detector with absolute meth- ods, while in the second part we focus on photon- number-resolving detectors, discussing both the clas- sical and quantum characterization of such devices.

Abstract
This paper's purpose is to review the results recently obtained in the Quantum Optics labs of the National Institute of Metrological Research (INRIM) in the eld of single- and few-photon detectors calibration, from both the classical and quantum viewpoint. In the rst part of the paper is presented the calibra- tion of a single-photon detector with absolute meth- ods, while in the second part we focus on photon- number-resolving detectors, discussing both the clas- sical and quantum characterization of such devices.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
