Broadband Characterization of Polarization Mode Dispersion for Quantum Communication Channels
Vadim Rodimin, Konstantin Kravtsov, Rui Ming Chua +5
We present a method for characterizing polarization fiber channels carrying broadband quantum signals, where narrowband filtering would waste photon flux. Wavelength-dependent pola…
Quantum Random Number Generator with Internal Consistency Check and Public Verification
Rodrigo Piera, Gianluca De Santis, Agustin Sanchez +2
Quantum Random Number Generators provide true physical randomness based on quantum processes, essential for cryptographic and scientific applications. However, practical implementa…
Impact of polarization mode dispersion on entangled photon distribution
Vadim Rodimin, Konstantin Kravtsov, Rui Ming Chua +5
Polarization mode dispersion (PMD) in optical fibers poses a major challenge for maintaining the fidelity of quantum states for quantum communications. In this work, a comprehensiv…
Delegated verification of quantum randomness with linear optics
Rodrigo Piera, Jaideep Singh, Yury Kurochkin +1
Randomness is a critical resource of modern cryptosystems. Quantum mechanics offers the best properties of an entropy source in terms of unpredictability. However, these sources ar…
A Compact Quantum Random Number Generator Based on Balanced Detection of Shot Noise
Jaideep Singh, Rodrigo Piera, Yury Kurochkin +1
Random Number Generators are critical components of modern cryptosystems. Quantum Random Number Generators (QRNG) have emerged to provide high-quality randomness for these applicat…
