Operation of parallel SNSPDs at high detection rates

Matthieu Perrenoud, Misael Caloz, Emna Amri +4

Recent progress in the development of superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPD) has delivered ex-cellent performance, and their increased adoption has had a great im…

Heralded distribution of single-photon path entanglement

Patrik Caspar, Ephanielle Verbanis, Enky Oudot +9

We report the experimental realization of heralded distribution of single-photon path entanglement at telecommunication wavelengths in a repeater-like architecture. The entanglemen…

Direct measurement of the recovery time of superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors

Claire Autebert, Gaëtan Gras, Emna Amri +4

One of the key properties of single-photon detectors is their recovery time, i.e. the time required for the detector to recover its nominal efficiency. In the case of superconducti…

Secure quantum key distribution over 421 km of optical fiber

Alberto Boaron, Gianluca Boso, Davide Rusca +10

We present a quantum key distribution system with a 2.5 GHz repetition rate using a three-state time-bin protocol combined with a one-decoy approach. Taking advantage of supercondu…

Optically probing the detection mechanism in a molybdenum silicide superconducting nanowire single-photon detector

Misael Caloz, Boris Korzh, Nuala Timoney +7

We experimentally investigate the detection mechanism in a meandered molybdenum silicide (MoSi) superconducting nanowire single-photon detector by characterising the detection prob…

Demonstration of EPR steering using single-photon path entanglement and displacement-based detection

T. Guerreiro, F. Monteiro, A. Martin +15

We demonstrate the violation of an EPR steering inequality developed for single photon path entanglement with displacement-based detection. We use a high-rate source of heralded si…
