摘要

Using coherent states in optical quantum process tomography is a practically relevant approach. Here we develop a framework for complete characterization of quantum-optical processes in terms of normally-ordered moments by using coherent states as probes. We derive the associated superoperator tensors for several optical processes. We also show that our technique can be used to determine nonclassicality features of quantum-optical states and processes. Furthermore, we investigate identification of multimode Gaussian processes and show that the number of necessary probe coherent states scales linearly with the number of modes.
