Heralding efficiency and correlated-mode coupling of near-IR fiber-coupled photon pairs

We report on a systematic experimental study of the heralding efficiency and generation rate of telecom-band infrared photon pairs generated by spontaneous parametric down-conversion and coupled to single-mode optical fibers. We define the correlated-mode coupling efficiency, an inherent source effi...
