Figure 1
Schematic for an XSVS experiment where the two pulses are collinear and perfectly overlapping (a) and where the two pulses have an angular mismatch and imperfect overlap (b). (c) The corresponding detector images for the two cases (a) and (b) for a high photon count regime (left column) and low photon count regime (right column) where Poisson noise is significant. The contrast as measured by the variance for the high photon count regime (d) and for the low photon count regime (e). |
