Abstract

We propose a method by which the sub-poissonian character of a space-charge-limited electron beam is transferred to photons. It is shown that a modified version of the Franck-Hertz experiment should generate a strong source of anti-bunched, sub-poissonian light at 253.7 nm. The relation between photon antibunching and sub-poissonian photon statistics is elucidated, and conditions are obtained when each implies the other.
