Fully passive entanglement based quantum key distribution scheme

Bo Liu, Matej Pivoluska, Johannes Handsteiner +5

In general, generation of entangled photon pairs and also the random choice of measurement basis can be implemented with passive optical devices in entanglement based quantum key d…

Strategies for achieving high key rates in satellite-based QKD

Sebastian Ecker, Bo Liu, Johannes Handsteiner +6

Quantum key distribution (QKD) is a pioneering quantum technology on the brink of widespread deployment. Nevertheless, the distribution of secret keys beyond a few 100 kilometers a…

Cosmic Bell Test using Random Measurement Settings from High-Redshift Quasars

Dominik Rauch, Johannes Handsteiner, Armin Hochrainer +17

In this Letter, we present a cosmic Bell experiment with polarization-entangled photons, in which measurement settings were determined based on real-time measurements of the wavele…

Challenging local realism with human choices

The BIG Bell Test Collaboration, C. Abellán, A. Acín +105

A Bell test is a randomized trial that compares experimental observations against the philosophical worldview of local realism. A Bell test requires spatially distributed entanglem…

Satellite-relayed intercontinental quantum network

Sheng-Kai Liao, Wen-Qi Cai, Johannes Handsteiner +33

We perform decoy-state quantum key distribution between a low-Earth-orbit satellite and multiple ground stations located in Xinglong, Nanshan, and Graz, which establish satellite-t…

Cosmic Bell Test: Measurement Settings from Milky Way Stars

Johannes Handsteiner, Andrew S. Friedman, Dominik Rauch +17

Bell's theorem states that some predictions of quantum mechanics cannot be reproduced by a local-realist theory. That conflict is expressed by Bell's inequality, which is usually d…

Three stage decoherence dynamics of electron spin qubits in an optically active quantum dot

A. Bechtold, D. Rauch, F. Li +6

The control of discrete quantum states in solids and their use for quantum information processing is complicated by the lack of a detailed understanding of the mechanisms responsib…
