The possible use of parametric fluorescence photon slipping in range measurement experiments is described. In the proposed method a CW laser is used and the return travel time of individual photons is used to estimate the range. A signal to noise ratio analysis is presented and comparisons are made with the conventional optical method of pulsed range finding. Conditions under which a photon splitting technique could be advantageous are established.
