Provably Secure and Practical Quantum Key Distribution over 307 km of Optical Fibre
Boris Korzh, Charles Ci Wen Lim, Raphael Houlmann +6
Proposed in 1984, quantum key distribution (QKD) allows two users to exchange provably secure keys via a potentially insecure quantum channel. Since then, QKD has attracted much at…
Quantum random number generation on a mobile phone
Bruno Sanguinetti, Anthony Martin, Hugo Zbinden +1
Quantum random number generators (QRNGs) can significantly improve the security of cryptographic protocols, by ensuring that generated keys cannot be predicted. However, the cost,…
Absolute calibration of fiber-coupled single-photon detector
Tommaso Lunghi, Boris Korzh, Bruno Sanguinetti +1
We show a setup for characterising the efficiency of a single-photon-detector absolutely and with a precision better of 1%. Since the setup does not rely on calibrated devices and…
Pulsed source of spectrally uncorrelated and indistinguishable photons at telecom wavelengths
Natalia Bruno, Anthony Martin, Thiago Guerreiro +2
We report on the generation of indistinguishable photon pairs at telecom wavelengths based on a type-II parametric down conversion process in a periodically poled potassium titanyl…
Nonlinear interaction between two heralded single photons
T. Guerreiro, A. Martin, B. Sanguinetti +7
Harnessing nonlinearities strong enough to allow two single photons to interact with one another is not only a fascinating challenge but is central to numerous advanced application…
