Low-error encoder for time-bin and decoy states for quantum key distribution
Davide Scalcon, Elisa Bazzani, Giuseppe Vallone +2
Time-bin encoding has been widely used for implementing quantum key distribution (QKD) on optical fiber channels due to its robustness with respect to drifts introduced by the opti…
Intermodal quantum key distribution field trial with active switching between fiber and free-space channels
Francesco Picciariello, Ilektra Karakosta-Amarantidou, Edoardo Rossi +6
Intermodal quantum key distribution enables the full interoperability of fiber networks and free-space channels, which are both necessary elements for the development of a global q…
Secure and robust randomness with sequential quantum measurements
Matteo Padovan, Giulio Foletto, Lorenzo Coccia +3
Quantum correlations between measurements of separated observers are crucial for applications like randomness generation and key distribution. Although device-independent security…
Synchronization of quantum communication over an optical classical communication channel
Federico Berra, Costantino Agnesi, Andrea Stanco +5
Precise synchronization between transmitter and receiver is crucial for quantum communication protocols, such as Quantum Key Distribution (QKD), to efficiently correlate the transm…
International time transfer between precise timing facilities secured with a quantum key distribution network
Francesco Picciariello, Francesco Vedovato, Davide Orsucci +14
Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSSs), such as GPS and Galileo, provide precise time and space coordinates globally and constitute part of the critical infrastructure of mode…
High-speed Source-Device-Independent Quantum Random Number Generator on a Chip
Tommaso Bertapelle, Marco Avesani, Alberto Santamato +11
A wide range of applications require, by hypothesis, to have access to a high-speed, private, and genuine random source. Quantum Random Number Generators (QRNGs) are currently the…
Modular source for near-infrared quantum communication
Federico Berra, Costantino Agnesi, Andrea Stanco +4
We present a source of states for Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) based on a modular design exploiting the iPOGNAC, a stable, low-error, and calibration-free polarization modulation…
