Abstract

We show that the two-photon phase coherence of parametrically generated photon pairs, which is at the origin of squeezed-light generation, can be directly probed using an intensity-correlation measurement. The resulting intensity correlation leads to a new violation of Bell's inequalities, which could be experimentally tested.
