CubeSat single-photon detector module for investigating in-orbit laser annealing to heal radiation damage

Nigar Sultana, Joanna Krynski, Jin Gyu Lim +5

Single-photon avalanche photodiodes (SPADs) based on silicon are widely considered for quantum satellite communications but suffer from an increasing dark count rate (DCR) due to d…

Protocols for healing radiation-damaged single-photon detectors suitable for space environment

Joanna Krynski, Nigar Sultana, Youn Seok Lee +2

Single-photon avalanche detectors (SPADs) are well-suited for satellite-based quantum communication because of their advantageous operating characteristics as well as their relativ…

Optical control of single-photon negative-feedback avalanche diode detector

Gaëtan Gras, Nigar Sultana, Anqi Huang +4

We experimentally demonstrate optical control of negative-feedback avalanche diode (NFAD) detectors using bright light. We deterministically generate fake single-photon detections…

Bright-light detector control emulates the local bounds of Bell-type inequalities

Shihan Sajeed, Nigar Sultana, Charles Ci Wen Lim +1

It is well-known that no local model - in theory - can simulate the outcome statistics of a Bell-type experiment as long as the detection efficiency is higher than a threshold valu…

Airborne demonstration of a quantum key distribution receiver payload

Christopher J. Pugh, Sarah Kaiser, Jean-Philippe Bourgoin +8

Satellite-based quantum terminals are a feasible way to extend the reach of quantum communication protocols such as quantum key distribution (QKD) to the global scale. To that end,…
