Record Photon Information Efficiency with Optical Clock Transmission and Recovery of 12.5 bits/photon over an Optical Channel with 77 dB Loss
We experimentally demonstrate optical detection at 12.5~bits per incident
photon, 9.4~dB higher than the theoretical limit of conventional coherent
detection. A single laser transmits both data and optical clock, undergoes
77~dB of attenuation before quantum detection followed by optical clock and
data recovery
