摘要
We have observed more than 3 dB squeezing in photon number fluctuations from a light emitting diode (LED) at liquid nitrogen temperature. The noise reduction is uniform within our measurement bandwidth of 1MHz, and its amount agrees with the emission efficiency of the LED. To our knowledge, it is the largest squeezing ever observed using a LED.
