Free-running InGaAs single photon detector with 1 dark count per second at 10% efficiency
Boris Korzh, Nino Walenta, Tommaso Lunghi +2
We present a free-running single photon detector for telecom wavelengths based on a negative feedback avalanche photodiode (NFAD). A dark count rate as low as 1 cps was obtained at…
Concise Security Bounds for Practical Decoy-State Quantum Key Distribution
Charles Ci Wen Lim, Marcos Curty, Nino Walenta +2
Due to its ability to tolerate high channel loss, decoy-state quantum key distribution (QKD) has been one of the main focuses within the QKD community. Notably, several experimenta…
Quantum Metropolitan Optical Network based on Wavelength Division Multiplexing
Alex Ciurana, Jesus Martinez-Mateo, Momtchil Peev +4
Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) is maturing quickly. However, the current approaches to its application in optical networks make it an expensive technology. QKD networks deployed to…
A fast and versatile QKD system with hardware key distillation and wavelength multiplexing
Nino Walenta, Andreas Burg, Dario Caselunghe +17
We present a 625 MHz clocked coherent one-way quantum key distribution (QKD) system which continuously distributes secret keys over an optical fibre link. To support high secret ke…
A high-speed multi-protocol quantum key distribution transmitter based on a dual-drive modulator
Boris Korzh, Nino Walenta, Raphael Houlmann +1
We propose a novel source based on a dual-drive modulator that is adaptable and allows Alice to choose between various practical quantum key distribution (QKD) protocols depending…
