Influence of molecular temperature on the coherence of fullerenes in a near-field interferometer
Klaus Hornberger, Lucia Hackermueller, Markus Arndt
We study C70 fullerene matter waves in a Talbot-Lau interferometer as a function of their temperature. While the ideal fringe visibility is observed at moderate molecular temperatu…
A Novel Protocol-Authentication Algorithm Ruling Out a Man-in-the-Middle Attack in Quantum Cryptography
M. Peev, M. Nölle, O. Maurhardt +6
In this work we review the security vulnerability of Quantum Cryptography with respect to "man-in-the-middle attacks" and the standard authentication methods applied to counteract…
Theory of decoherence in a matter wave Talbot-Lau interferometer
Klaus Hornberger, John E. Sipe, Markus Arndt
We present a theoretical framework to describe the effects of decoherence on matter waves in Talbot-Lau interferometry. Using a Wigner description of the stationary beam the loss o…
Decoherence of matter waves by thermal emission of radiation
Lucia Hackermueller, Klaus Hornberger, Bjoern Brezger +2
Emergent quantum technologies have led to increasing interest in decoherence - the processes that limit the appearance of quantum effects and turn them into classical phenomena. On…
