Figure 3. Correlations of two-particle N00N states undergoing Bloch oscillations.

Figure 3

Experimental correlation matrices Γk,l (z) at four propagation distances 0.1λB ... 0.4λB obtained with (ad) a symmetric input state Inline graphic and (eh) an antisymmetric input state Inline graphic. Best-fit corresponding simulations are shown along with experiments, optimized with input phase shifts of Inline graphic for the symmetric input and with Inline graphic for the antisymmetric one. The coupling coefficient C (equal to 0.48 and 0.45 cm−1 for symmetric and antisymmetric state preparation, respectively) was also determined through best-fit optimization within a range provided by a coupling-distance-dependence experiment. Non-deterministic number-resolved photon detection was achieved using fibre beam-splitters.
