Both the linear and the nonlinear interferences can provide information about the light statistics an underlying detail of the light-matter interactions. Here we demonstrate how interferometric detection of nonlinear spectroscopic signals may be used to improve the measurement accuracy of matter susceptibilities. Light-matter interactions change the photon statistics of quantum light, which are encoded in the field correlation functions. Application is made to the Hong-Ou-Mandel two-photon interferometer that reveals entanglement-enhanced resolution that can be achieved with existing optical technology.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-03-03T13:59:16.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "hong-ou-mandel interferometry", "entangled photons", "spectroscopy", "field correlation functions", "hong-ou-mandel two-photon interferometer" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
