Towards an All-Silicon QKD Transmitter Sourced by a Ge-on-Si Light Emitter
Florian Honz, Nemanja Vokić, Michael Hentschel +3
We demonstrate a novel transmitter concept for quantum key distribution based on the polarization-encoded BB84 protocol, which is sourced by the incoherent light of a forward-biase…

Towards an All-Silicon DV-QKD Transmitter Sourced by a Ge-on-Si Light Emitter
Florian Honz, Nemanja Vokić, Philip Walther +2
We investigate the behavior of a Ge-on-Si light source and demonstrate its feasibility for polarization-encoded discrete-variable quantum key distribution following the BB84 protoc…

Simplified Polarization-Encoding for BB84 QKD Sourced by Incoherent Light of a Silicon Emitter
Florian Honz, Nemanja Vokić, Philip Walther +2
We investigate a polarization-encoded BB84-QKD transmitter that is simplified from an architectural and technological point-of-view, demonstrating a silicon emitter sourcing a low-…
