A detailed description of the experimental realisation of quantum illumination protocol
E. D. Lopaeva, I. Ruo Berchera, S. Olivares +3
In the last years the exploitation of specific properties of quantum states has disclosed the possibility of realising tasks beyond classical limits, creating the new field of quan…
Quantum and classical characterization of single/few photon detectors
M. G. Mingolla, F. Piacentini, A. Avella +10
This paper's purpose is to review the results recently obtained in the Quantum Optics labs of the National Institute of Metrological Research (INRIM) in the field of single- and fe…
Testing Quantum Gravity by Quantum Light
I. Ruo Berchera, I. P. Degiovanni, S. Olivares +1
In the last years quantum correlations received large attention as key ingredient in advanced quantum metrology protocols, in this letter we show that they provide even larger adva…
Experimental Test of an Event-Based Corpuscular Model Modification as an Alternative to Quantum Mechanics
Giorgio Brida, Ivo Pietro Degiovanni, Marco Genovese +4
We present the first experimental test that distinguishes between an event-based corpuscular model (EBCM) [H. De Raedt et al.: J. Comput. Theor. Nanosci. 8 (2011) 1052] of the inte…
Experimental realisation of quantum illumination
E. D. Lopaeva, I. Ruo Berchera, I. P. Degiovanni +3
We present the first experimental realisation of the quantum illumination protocol proposed in Ref.s [S. Lloyd, Science 321, 1463 (2008); S. Tan et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 101, 25360…
An extremely low-noise heralded single-photon source: a breakthrough for quantum technologies
G. Brida, I. P. Degiovanni, M. Genovese +11
Low noise single-photon sources are a critical element for quantum technologies. We present a heralded single-photon source with an extremely low level of residual background photo…
