Abstract
The click statistics from on-off detector systems is quite different from the counting statistics of the more traditional detectors. This necessitates the introduction of new parameters to characterize the nonclassicality of fields from measurements using on-off detectors. To properly replace the Mandel Q(M) parameter, we introduce a parameter Q(B). A negative value represents a sub-binomial statistics. This is possible only for quantum fields, even for super-Poisson light. It eliminates the problems encountered in discerning nonclassicality using Mandel's Q(M) for on-off data.
