Single photon wavefront-splitting interference: An illustration of the light quantum in action
V. Jacques, E. Wu, T. Toury +4
We present a new realization of the textbook experiment consisting in single-photon interference based on the pulsed, optically excited photoluminescence of a single colour centre…
Illustration of quantum complementarity using single photons interfering on a grating
V. Jacques, N. D. Lai, A. Dreau +5
A recent experiment performed by S. S. Afshar et al. has been interpreted as a violation of Bohr's complementarity principle between interference visibility and which-path informat…
Delayed-choice test of complementarity with single photons
Vincent Jacques, E. Wu, Frédéric Grosshans +4
We report an experimental test of complementarity using clock-triggered single-photon pulses emitted by an individual N-V color center in a diamond nanocrystal. The single photons…
Room temperature triggered single-photon source in the near infrared
E. Wu, James Rabeau, Gérard Roger +5
We report the realization of a solid-state triggered single-photon source with narrow emission in the near infrared at room temperature. It is based on the photoluminescence of a s…
Narrow-band single-photon emission in the near infrared for quantum key distribution
E. Wu, Vincent Jacques, Heping Zeng +3
We report on the observation of single colour centers in natural diamond samples emitting in the near infrared region when optically excited. Photoluminescence of these single emit…
Experimental open air quantum key distribution with a single photon source
Romain Alleaume, Francois Treussart, Gaetan Messin +6
We present a full implementation of a quantum key distribution (QKD) system with a single photon source, operating at night in open air. The single photon source at the heart of th…
