GHz-rate polarization-based QKD system for fiber and satellite applications
Matías Rubén Bolaños, Edoardo Rossi, Federico Berra +9
Quantum key distribution (QKD) leverages the principles of quantum mechanics to exchange a secret key between two parties. Despite its promising features, QKD also faces several pr…
General model and modulation strategies for Sagnac-based encoders
Federico Berra, Matías Rubén Bolaños, Alberto De Toni +6
In recent decades, there has been an increasing demand for faster modulation schemes. Electro-optic modulators are essential components in modern photonic systems, enabling high-sp…
Power-consumption Backdoor in Quantum Key Distribution
Beatriz Lopes da Costa, Matías R. Bolaños, Ricardo Chaves +7
Over the last decades, Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) has risen as a promising solution for secure communications. However, like all cryptographic protocols, QKD implementations ca…
A time-to-digital converter with steady calibration through single-photon detection
Matías Rubén Bolaños, Daniele Vogrig, Paolo Villoresi +2
Time-to-Digital Converters (TDCs) are a crucial tool in a wide array of fields, in particular for quantum communication, where time taggers performance can severely affect the qual…
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…
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…
