Phys. Rev. Lett. 94, 063601 (2005) [4 pages]Two-Photon Imaging with Thermal LightReceived 30 July 2004; published 16 February 2005 We report the first experimental demonstration of two-photon imaging with a pseudothermal source. Similarly to the case of entangled states, a two-photon Gaussian thin lens equation is observed, indicating EPR type correlation in position. We introduce the concepts of two-photon coherent and two-photon incoherent imaging. The differences between the entangled and the thermal cases are explained in terms of these concepts. © 2005 The American Physical Society URL:
