Abstract

We describe a modification of a nonlinear Mach-Zehnder interferorneter to produce a sub-Poissonian photon distribution and an experimental set-up to realize it. It is shown that it is possible to achieve a substantial reduction in the photon number uncertainty with a high power efficiency.
