Homodyne measurement of exponential phase moments
Abstract
It is shown that the exponential moments of the canonical phase can be directly sampled from the data recorded in balanced homodyne detection. Analytical expressions for the sampling functions are derived, which are valid for arbitrary states and bridge the gap between quantum and classical phase. The reconstruction of the canonical phase distribution from the experimentally determined exponential moments is discussed.
