Abstract
Here we examine a new application of the adaptive detectors based on non-steady-state photo-electro-motive force effect for the detection of higher order correlation functions, aiming the estimation of the parameters of ultra short optical pulses arranged in high-repetition trains. For this purpose three beam interferometer scheme with two signal beams modulated at different frequencies is proposed. Theoretical analysis of non-steady-state photo-EMF current generated by light distribution formed by superposition of three waves is performed and the possibility to detect simultaneously second and higher order correlation function is demonstrated. Potential advantages and disadvantages of such detection scheme for measuring the higher order auto-correlations functions are discussed.
