Enhancing SPDC brightness using elliptical pump shapes
Aitor Villar, Arian Stolk, Alexander Lohrmann +1
We report on the use of elliptical pump spatial modes to increase the observed brightness of spontaneous parametric downconversion in critically phase matched crystals. Simulations…

A Link Layer Protocol for Quantum Networks
Axel Dahlberg, Matthew Skrzypczyk, Tim Coopmans +9
Quantum communication brings radically new capabilities that are provably impossible to attain in any classical network. Here, we take the first step from a physics experiment to a…

High fidelity field stop collection for polarization-entangled photon pair sources
Alexander Lohrmann, Aitor Villar, Arian Stolk +1
We present an experimental demonstration of a bright and high fidelity polarization entangled photon pair source. The source is constructed using two critically phase matched -B…
