GHz detection rates and dynamic photon-number resolution with superconducting nanowire arrays
Giovanni V. Resta, Lorenzo Stasi, Matthieu Perrenoud +5
Superconducting-nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs) have enabled the realization of several quantum optics technologies thanks to their high detection efficiency, low dark-co…
Fast Single Photon Detectors and real-time Key Distillation: Enabling High Secret Key Rate QKD Systems
Fadri Grünenfelder, Alberto Boaron, Matthieu Perrenoud +11
Quantum Key Distribution has made continuous progress over the last 20 years and is now commercially available. However, the secret key rates (SKR) are still limited to a few Mbps.…
High-efficiency and fast photon-number resolving parallel superconducting nanowire single-photon detector
Lorenzo Stasi, Gaëtan Gras, Riad Berrazouane +3
Photon-number resolving (PNR) single-photon detectors are an enabling technology in many areas such as photonic quantum computing, non-classical light source characterisation and q…
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…
Receiver-Device-Independent Quantum Key Distribution
Marie Ioannou, Maria Ana Pereira, Davide Rusca +9
We present protocols for quantum key distribution in a prepare-and-measure setup with an asymmetric level of trust. While the device of the sender (Alice) is partially characterize…
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…
High-detection efficiency and low-timing jitter with amorphous superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors
Misael Caloz, Matthieu Perrenoud, Claire Autebert +6
Recent progress in the development of superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs) made of amorphous material has delivered excellent performances, and has had a great…
