The polarizing multi-photon quantum states tomography with non-unit quantum efficiency of detectors is considered. A new quantum tomography protocol is proposed. This protocol considers events of losing photons of multi-photon quantum state in one or more channels among with n-fold coincidence events. The advantage of the proposed protocol compared with the standard n-fold coincidence protocol is demonstrated using the methods of statistical analysis.

We present a novel method for quantum tomography of multi-qubit states. We apply the method to spin-multi-photon states, which we produce by periodic excitation of a semiconductor quantum-dot- confined spin every 1/4 of its coherent precession period
. These timed excitations lead to the deterministic generation of strings of entangled photons in a cluster state. We show that our method can be used for characterizing the periodic process map, which produces the photonic cluster. From the measured process map, we quantify the robustness of the entanglement in the cluster. The 3-fold enhanced generation rate over previous demonstrations reduces the spin decoherence between the pulses and thereby increases the entanglement.
A single photon has many physical degrees of freedom (DOF) that can carry the state of a high-dimensional quantum system. Nevertheless, only a single DOF is usually used in any specific demonstration. Furthermore, when more DOF are being used, they a
re analyzed and measured one at a time. We introduce a two-qubit information system, realized by two degrees of freedom of a single photon: polarization and time. The photon arrival time is divided into two time-bins representing a qubit, while its polarization state represents a second qubit. The time difference between the two time-bins is created without an interferometer at the picosecond scale, which is much smaller than the detectors response time. The two physically different DOF are analyzed simultaneously by photon bunching between the analyzed photon and an ancilla photon. Full two-qubit states encoded in single photons were reconstructed using quantum state tomography, both when the two DOF were entangled and when they were not, with fidelities higher than 96%.
The polarization properties of macroscopic Bell states are characterized using three-dimensional quantum polarization tomography. This method utilizes three-dimensional inverse Radon transform to reconstruct the polarization quasiprobability distribu
tion function of a state from the probability distributions measured for various Stokes observables. The reconstructed 3D distributions obtained for the macroscopic Bell states are compared with those obtained for a coherent state with the same mean photon number. The results demonstrate squeezing in one or more Stokes observables.
In this work we present an algorithm of building an adequate model of polarizing quantum state measurement. This model takes into account chromatic aberration of the basis change transformation caused by the parasitic dispersion of the wave plates cr
ystal and finite radiation spectral bandwidth. We show that the chromatic aberration reduces the amount of information in the measurements results. Using the information matrix approach we estimate the impact of this effect on the qubit state reconstruction fidelity for different values of sample size and spectral bandwidth. We also demonstrate that our model outperforms the standard model of projective measurements as it could suppress systematic errors of quantum tomography even when one performs the measurements using wave plates of high order.
Purpose: Developing photon-counting CT detectors requires understanding the impact of parameters such as converter material, absorption length and pixel size. We apply a novel linear-systems framework, incorporating spatial and energy resolution, to
study realistic silicon (Si) and cadmium telluride (CdTe) detectors at low count rate. Approach: We compared CdTe detector designs with $0.5times0.5; mathrm{mm}^2$ and $0.225times0.225; mathrm{mm}^2$ pixels and Si detector designs with $0.5times0.5; mathrm{mm}^2$ pixels of 30 and 60 mm active absorption length, with and without tungsten scatter blockers. Monte-Carlo simulations of photon transport were used together with Gaussian charge sharing models fitted to published data. Results: For detection in a 300 mm thick object at 120 kVp, the 0.5 mm and 0.225 mm pixel CdTe systems have 28-41 $%$ and 5-29 $%$ higher DQE, respectively, than the 60 mm Si system with tungsten, whereas the corresponding numbers for two-material decomposition are 2 $%$ lower to 11 $%$ higher DQE and 31-54 $%$ lower DQE compared to Si. We also show that combining these detectors with dual-spectrum acquisition is beneficial. Conclusions: In the low-count-rate regime, CdTe detector systems outperform the Si systems for detection tasks, while silicon outperforms one or both of the CdTe systems for material decomposition.
