Description
Summary:In this paper, it is described the development in the LabVIEW plataform together with the programming context of MATLAB for the control and automation of quantum optics experiments. The developed program allows the communication of the different involved devices: SPCM (Single Photon Counters Modules) photon detectors; TDC (time to digital converter) converter ID900 from ID Quantique with 10 ps of resolution and the motorized rotators PRM1Z8(Motorized Rotation Stage from Thorlabs). The implemented system, allows to work optimally during the laboratory experiments that must be performed under darkness condition, this avoids manipulation errors during the measurement process.
