符合测量在量子光学实验中有着重要的应用,它可以用于测量纠缠光子对和单光子干涉等实验。在使用过程中,经常用到三通道或更多通道的符合测量,这种情况下简单的门电路无法满足使用要求,而现场可编程门阵列(FPGA)为实现低成本、小体积的多通道符合计数系统提供了解决方案。同时,基于FPGA的多通道符合计数系统还可以提供ns精度的符合分辨时间,避免本底光噪声对探测器的影响,从而有效抑制偶然符合,进一步提高了多通道符合计数系统的性能。本文介绍了基于FPGA的多通道符合计数器,并实验测量了单光子探测器信号的符合计数。

This paper introduces the principle of multichannel coincidence counter based onFPGA and gives its performance experimentally with two singl ephoton counting modules.
