Controlling the Photon Number Coherence of Solid-state Quantum Light Sources for Quantum Cryptography

Yusuf Karli, Daniel A. Vajner, Florian Kappe +14

Quantum communication networks rely on quantum cryptographic protocols including quantum key distribution (QKD) using single photons. A critical element regarding the security of Q…

Programmable multi-photon quantum interference in a single spatial mode

Lorenzo Carosini, Virginia Oddi, Francesco Giorgino +7

The interference of non-classical states of light enables quantum-enhanced applications reaching from metrology to computation. Most commonly, the polarisation or spatial location…

Single-active-element demultiplexed multi-photon source

Lena M. Hansen, Lorenzo Carosini, Lennart Jehle +5

Temporal-to-spatial demultiplexing routes non-simultaneous events of the same spatial mode to distinct output trajectories. This technique has now been widely adopted because it gi…

Enhancing quantum cryptography with quantum dot single-photon sources

Mathieu Bozzio, Michal Vyvlecka, Michael Cosacchi +7

Quantum cryptography harnesses quantum light, in particular single photons, to provide security guarantees that cannot be reached by classical means. For each cryptographic task, t…

Photon-number entanglement generated by sequential excitation of a two-level atom

S. C. Wein, J. C. Loredo, M. Maffei +11

Entanglement and spontaneous emission are fundamental quantum phenomena that drive many applications of quantum physics. During the spontaneous emission of light from an excited tw…

Bright Polarized Single-Photon Source Based on a Linear Dipole

S. E. Thomas, M. Billard, N. Coste +13

Semiconductor quantum dots in cavities are promising single-photon sources. Here, we present a path to deterministic operation, by harnessing the intrinsic linear dipole in a neutr…
