Quantum entanglement and statistics of photons on a beam splitter in the form of coupled waveguides

Abstract It is well known that a beam splitter (BS) can be used as a source of photon quantum entanglement. This is due to the fact that the statistics of photons changes at the output ports of the BS. Usually, quantum entanglement and photon statistics take into account the constancy of the reflect...
