Abstract

We present an experimental demonstration of quantum optical coherence tomography (QOCT). The technique makes use of an entangled twin-photon light source to carry out axial optical sectioning. QOCT is compared to conventional optical co1herence tomography (OCT). The immunity of QOCT to dispersion, as well as a factor of two enhancement in resolution, are experimentally demonstrated.
