32 Bin Near-Infrared Time-Multiplexing Detector with Attojoule Single-Shot Energy Resolution

Patrick Eraerds, Jun Zhang, Enrico Pomarico +3

We present two implementations of photon counting time-multiplexing detectors for near-infrared wavelengths, based on Peltier cooled InGaAs/InP avalanche photo diodes (APDs). A fir…

2.23 GHz gating InGaAs/InP single-photon avalanche diode for quantum key distribution

Jun Zhang, Patrick Eraerds, Nino Walenta +3

We implement an InGaAs/InP single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) for single-photon detection with the fastest gating frequency reported so far, of 2.23 GHz, which approaches the lim…

Photon Counting OTDR : Advantages and Limitations

Patrick Eraerds, Matthieu Legre, Jun Zhang +2

We give detailed insight into photon counting OTDR (nu-OTDR) operation, ranging from Geiger mode operation of avalanche photodiodes (APD), analysis of different APD bias schemes, t…

Quantum key distribution and 1 Gbit/s data encryption over a single fibre

Patrick Eraerds, Nino Walenta, Matthieu Legre +2

We perform quantum key distribution (QKD) in the presence of 4 classical channels in a C-band dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) configuration using a commercial QKD sys…

SiPM used as fast Photon-Counting Module and for Multiphoton Detection

P. Eraerds, M. Legre, A. Rochas +2

We demonstrate fast counting and multiphoton detection abilities of a Silicon Photo Multiplier (SiPM). In fast counting mode we are able to detect two consecutive photons separated…
