摘要：
This work presents a probability theory of coincidence detection to address the detection limit of time-correlated photon sources. We use Bayes' theorem to model instruments a noisy communication channel and apply statistical inference to identify the minimum detectable coincidence rate. Photon triplet generation is considered as a case study to illustrate application of coincidence detection theory for time-correlated photon sources that are based spontaneous parametric down-conversion. A triplet generation rate of 1-100 Hz is required for source characterization performed over 1-72 hours using superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors. We envision the connection between Bayes' theorem and coincidence detection opens a new avenue for applying signal processing techniques available in information theory to photon coincidence measurements. 2024 Optica Publishing Group under the terms of the Optica Open Access Publishing Agreement
