A fast and versatile QKD system with hardware key distillation and wavelength multiplexing
Nino Walenta, Andreas Burg, Dario Caselunghe +17
We present a 625 MHz clocked coherent one-way quantum key distribution (QKD) system which continuously distributes secret keys over an optical fibre link. To support high secret ke…
Sine gating detector with simple filtering for low-noise infra-red single photon detection at room temperature
Nino Walenta, Tommaso Lunghi, Olivier Guinnard +3
We present and analyze a gated single photon avalanche detector using a sine gating scheme with a simple but effective low-pass filtering technique for fast low-noise single photon…
Quantum Key Distribution over 67 km with a plug & play system
D. Stucki, N. Gisin, O. Guinnard +2
We present a fibre-optical quantum key distribution system. It works at 1550nm and is based on the plug & play setup. We tested the stability under field conditions using aerial an…
Optical Quantum Random Number Generator
André Stefanov, Nicolas Gisin, Olivier Guinnard +2
A physical random number generator based on the intrinsic randomness of quantum mechanics is described. The random events are realized by the choice of single photons between the t…
Fast and User-friendly Quantum Key Distribution
Gregoire Ribordy, Jean-Daniel Gautier, Nicolas Gisin +2
Some guidelines for the comparison of different quantum key distribution experiments are proposed. An improved 'plug & play' interferometric system allowing fast key exchange is th…
Automated 'plug & play' quantum key distribution
G. Ribordy, J. -D. Gautier, N. Gisin +2
An improved "plug & play" interferometric system for quantum key distribution is presented. Self-alignment and compensation of birefringence remain, while limitations due to reflec…
