Bell inequality violation by entangled single photon states generated from a laser, a LED or a Halogen lamp

M. Pasini, N. Leone, S. Mazzucchi +3

In single-particle or intraparticle entanglement, two degrees of freedom of a single particle, e.g., momentum and polarization of a single photon, are entangled. Single-particle en…

A quantum key distribution scheme based on tripartite entanglement and violation of CHSH inequality

Davide Pastorello

Entanglement is a well-known resource in quantum information, in particular it can be exploited for quantum key distribution (QKD). In this paper we define a two-way QKD scheme emp…
