Abstract
The production of conditional quantum states and quantum operations based on the result of measurement is now seen as a key tool in quantum information and metrology. We propose a new type of photon number detector. It functions non-deterministically, but when successful, it has high fidelity. The detector, which makes use of an n-photon auxiliary Fock state and high efficiency Homodyne detection, allows a tunable tradeoff between fidelity and probability. By sacrificing probability of operation, an excellent approximation to a photon number detector is achieved.
