Ghost imaging experiment with sunlight compared to laboratory experiment with thermal light

Recently it has been suggested that an enhancement in the visibility of ghost images obtained with thermal light can be achieved exploiting higher order correlations.1 This paper reports on the status of a higher order ghost imaging experiment carried on at INRIM labs exploiting a pseudo-thermal source and a CCD camera.

We present a new ghost-imaging experiment that is realized by exploiting two intense correlated beams. The beams involved are signal and idler of a seeded parametric downconversion. The peculiarity of this scheme is that the seed field is an intense pseudo-thermal field generated by passing a laser beam through two rotating ground glass plates.

Two-photon correlation phenomena of chaotic light, including the historical Hanbury Brown and Twiss effect, are essentially the quantum effect of two-photon interference, instead of the classical statistical correlation between intensity fluctuations. To support our view, we analyze a "ghost" imaging experiment with chaotic light for which the classical understanding does not give a satisfactory interpretation. We also provide a two-photon optical picture of ghost imaging with chaotic light in terms of a two-photon phase-conjugate mirror, which suggests lensless imaging applications for radiations for which no effective lens is available.
