Abstract
We report experimental observations of correlated-photon statistics in the single-photon detection rate. The usual quantum interference in a two-photon polarization interferometer always accompanies a dip in the single-detector counting rate, regardless of whether a dip or a peak is seen in the coincidence rate. This effect is explained by taking into account all possible photon number states that reach the detector, rather than considering just the state postselected by the coincidence measurement. We also report an interferometeric scheme in which the interference peak or dip in the coincidence corresponds directly to a peak or a dip in the single-photon detection rate.
