Effective second-order correlation function and single-photon detection

Quantum-optical research on semiconductor single-photon sources puts special emphasis on the measurement of the second-order correlation function g ^(2) ( τ ), arguing that g ^(2) (0) < 1/2 implies the source field represents a good single-photon light source. We analyze the gain of information f...
