Abstract
In this article, we introduce a framework for entanglement characterization by time-resolved single-photon counting with measurement operators defined in the time domain. For a quantum system with unitary dynamics, we generate time-continuous measurements by shifting from the Schrödinger picture to the Heisenberg representation. In particular, we discuss this approach in reference to photonic tomography. To make the measurement scheme realistic, we impose timing uncertainty on photon counts along with the Poisson noise. Then, the framework is tested numerically on quantum tomography of qubits. Next, we investigate the accuracy of the model for polarization-entangled photon pairs. Entanglement detection and precision of state reconstruction are quantified by figures of merit and presented on graphs versus the amount of time uncertainty.
