Abstract :
We report temporal spreading of a localized single-photon wave packet, conditionally prepared by detecting the trigger photon of the photon pair born in the process of spontaneous parametric down-conversion, propagating through a single-mode optical fiber. The wave packet broadening is shown to be controllable by spectrally filtering the trigger photon.
