Abstract
We report on a robust method for reconstructing multi-mode optical fields. In particular, our method correctly identifies the number and types of modes as well as each mode’s energy, which we demonstrated experimentally. Our method uses multidetector trees and both high-order autocorrelation functions of detected photons (the Glauber function) and high-order autocorrelation functions of no-photon detection. Here we show successful reconstruction for classical and nonclassical multimode fields that contain up to 4 modes whose types are not disclosed to the reconstruction algorithm. This method is significantly more successful than the previously reported one, based on high-order Glauber functions only.
