We present the two kinds of experimental results. One is a continuous variable dense coding experiment, and the other is a photon number detector with high linearity response, the so called charge integration photon detector (CIPD). They can be combined together to be a potential tool for implementing the cubic phase gate which is an important gate element to synthesize the measurement induced nonlinearity for photonic quantum information processing.

Superconducting nanostrip photon detectors have been used as single photon detectors, which can discriminate only photons presence or absence. It has recently been found that they can discriminate the number of photons by analyzing the output signal
waveform, and they are expected to be used in various fields, especially in optical quantum information processing. Here, we improve the photon-number-resolving performance for light with a high-average photon number by pattern matching of the output signal waveform. Furthermore, we estimate the positive-operator-valued measure of the detector by a quantum detector tomography. The result shows that the device has photon-number-resolving performance up to five photons without any multiplexing or arraying, indicating that it is useful as a photon-number-resolving detector.
Homodyne detection is considered as a way to improve the efficiency of communication near the single-photon level. The current lack of commercially available {it infrared} photon-number detectors significantly reduces the mutual information accessibl
e in such a communication channel. We consider simulating direct detection via homodyne detection. We find that our particular simulated direct detection strategy could provide limited improvement in the classical information transfer. However, we argue that homodyne detectors (and a polynomial number of linear optical elements) cannot simulate photocounters arbitrarily well, since otherwise the exponential gap between quantum and classical computers would vanish.
A nonclassical light source is used to demonstrate experimentally the absolute efficiency calibration of a photon-number-resolving detector. The photon-pair detector calibration method developed by Klyshko for single-photon detectors is generalized t
o take advantage of the higher dynamic range and additional information provided by photon-number-resolving detectors. This enables the use of brighter twin-beam sources including amplified pulse pumped sources, which increases the relevant signal and provides measurement redundancy, making the calibration more robust.
Joint signal-idler photoelectron distributions of twin beams containing several tens of photons per mode have been measured recently. Exploiting a microscopic quantum theory for joint quasi-distributions in parametric down-conversion developed earlie
r we characterize properties of twin beams in terms of quasi-distributions using experimental data. Negative values as well as oscillating behaviour in quantum region are characteristic for the subsequently determined joint signal-idler quasi-distributions of integrated intensities. Also the conditional and difference photon-number distributions are shown to be sub-Poissonian and sub-shot-noise, respectively.
The scheme for building stronger multi-mode twin beams from a greater number of identical twin beams sufficiently weak so that single-photon sensitive on/off detectors suffice in their detection is studied. Statistical properties of these compound tw
in beams involving the non-classicality are analyzed for intensities up to hundreds of photon pairs. Their properties are compared with those of the genuine twin beams that require photon-number-resolving detectors in their experimental investigations. The use of such compound twin beams for the generation of sub-Poissonian light and measurement of absorption with sub-shot-noise precision is analyzed. A suitable theoretical model for the compound twin beams is developed to interpret the experimental data.
