Quantum-optical catalysis by means of a single photon

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We convert coherent states of light into nonclassical coherent superpositions of the vacuum and the single-photon states via conditional measurements on a beamsplitter, employing single photons as "catalysts": they facilitate the conversion without being consumed.
