Description of the Data:
This dataset contains experimental data supporting the figures in the manuscript mentioned above. The data capture quantum interference patterns and spectral measurements of bandwidth-mismatched photons, specifically focusing on Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM) interference with and without a time-lens mechanism.
File Structure and Contents:
The dataset is organized into two main directories corresponding to specific figures in the manuscript.
1. Folder: `HOM` (Hong-Ou-Mandel)
Description: Contains data for Figure 4. These files represent the HOM dip measurements.
File format: .csv (Comma Separated Values)
- `hom_interference_with_time_lens.csv`
Data representing the interference pattern when the time lens setup was active.
Column 1: Time delay (in seconds)
Column 2: Coincidence Counts (per second)
Column 3: Coincidence to Singles Ratio
- `hom_interference_without_time_lens.csv`
Data representing the interference pattern without the time lens.
Column 1: Time delay (in seconds)
Column 2: Coincidence Counts (per second)
Column 3: Coincidence to Singles Ratio
2. Folder: `Spectra`
Description: Contains data for Figure 3. These files represent time-of-flight spectral measurements.
File format: .csv and .dat (ASCII text)
- `classical_reference.csv`
Spectrum of the classical reference signal.
Columns: Wavelength (nm), Intensity (mW)
- `with_time_lens_heralded.dat`
Heralded coincidence data with the time lens on. Red trace in Figure 3(c).
Columns: Time (ps), Coincidence Counts (per second)
- `with_time_lens_unheralded.dat`
Single photon count rates with the time lens on. Blue trace in Figure 3(c).
Columns: Time (ps), Counts (per second)
- `without_time_lens_heralded.dat`
Coincidence data collected with the time lens off. Red trace in Figure 3(b).
Columns: Time (ps), Coincidence Counts (per second)
- `without_time_lens_unheralded.dat`
Single photon count rates with the time lens off. Blue trace in Figure 3(b).
Columns: Time (ps), Counts (per second)
