Abstract:The direct measurement of the Mandel para- meter of weak laser pulses, with 10 ns pulse duration time and the mean number of photon per pulsenbeing approxi-mately 0.1, is investigated by recording every photocount event. With the Hanbury Brown and Twiss detection scheme, and not more than one photon per pulse being detected dur-ing the sample time by single-photon counters, we have found that the single mode diode laser with driving current lower than the threshold yields a sub-Poissonian statistics. In addition, when the diode laser driving current is much higher than the threshold, it is validated that the Mandel parameter QC of the Poissonian coherent state is nearly -/2.nThe experimental results are in good agreement with theoretical prediction considering the measurement error.
Keywords:photon statistics  Mandel parameter  dead time  sin-gle-photon counter  Poisson distribution
