Fast and simple qubit-based synchronization for quantum key distribution
Luca Calderaro, Andrea Stanco, Costantino Agnesi +4
We propose Qubit4Sync, a synchronization method for Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) setups, based on the same qubits exchanged during the protocol and without requiring additional h…
Simple Quantum Key Distribution with qubit-based synchronization and a self-compensating polarization encoder
Costantino Agnesi, Marco Avesani, Luca Calderaro +7
Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) relies on quantum communication to allow distant parties to share a secure cryptographic key. Widespread adoption of QKD in current telecommunication…
Full daylight quantum-key-distribution at 1550 nm enabled by integrated silicon photonics
M. Avesani, L. Calderaro, M. Schiavon +16
The future envisaged global-scale quantum communication network will comprise various nodes interconnected via optical fibers or free-space channels, depending on the link distance…
All-fiber self-compensating polarization encoder for Quantum Key Distribution
Costantino Agnesi, Marco Avesani, Andrea Stanco +2
Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) allows distant parties to exchange cryptographic keys with unconditional security by encoding information on the degrees of freedom of photons. Polar…
Sub-ns timing accuracy for satellite quantum communications
Costantino Agnesi, Luca Calderaro, Daniele Dequal +7
Satellite quantum communications have rapidly evolved in the past few years, culminating in the proposal, development, and deployment of satellite missions dedicated to quantum key…
Hong-Ou-Mandel interference between independent III-V on silicon waveguide integrated lasers
C. Agnesi, B. Da Lio, D. Cozzolino +12
The versatility of silicon photonic integrated circuits has led to a widespread usage of this platform for quantum information based applications, including Quantum Key Distributio…
