Probing higher order correlations of the photon field with photon number resolving avalanche photodiodes
J. F. Dynes, Z. L. Yuan, A. W. Sharpe +2
We demonstrate the use of two high speed avalanche photodiodes in exploring higher order photon correlations. By employing the photon number resolving capability of the photodiodes…

Resilience of gated avalanche photodiodes against bright illumination attacks in quantum cryptography
Z. L. Yuan, J. F. Dynes, A. J. Shields
Semiconductor avalanche photodiodes (APDs) are commonly used for single photon detection in quantum key distribution. Recently, many attacks using bright illumination have been pro…
