Picosecond-resolved entanglement distribution over an urban free-space channel

Alessandro Laneve, Fabrizio Cienzo, Santiago Gomez +18

Time-evolving entangled states describe quantum particles whose correlations evolve in time according to a well-defined dynamics. Such states can be generated in a variety of physi…

A high-brightness source of polarization-entangled photons optimized for applications in free space

Fabian Steinlechner, Pavel Trojek, Marc Jofre +9

We present a simple but highly efficient source of polarization-entangled photons based on spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) in bulk periodically poled potassium titany…

Quantum Eavesdropping without Interception: An Attack Exploiting the Dead Time of Single Photon Detectors

Henning Weier, Harald Krauss, Markus Rau +3

The security of quantum key distribution (QKD) can easily be obscured if the eavesdropper can utilize technical imperfections of the actual implementation. Here we describe and exp…

Free-Space distribution of entanglement and single photons over 144 km

R. Ursin, F. Tiefenbacher, T. Schmitt-Manderbach +15

Quantum Entanglement is the essence of quantum physics and inspires fundamental questions about the principles of nature. Moreover it is also the basis for emerging technologies of…

Distributing entanglement and single photons through an intra-city, free-space quantum channel

K. J. Resch, M. Lindenthal, B. Blauensteiner +11

We have distributed entangled photons directly through the atmosphere to a receiver station 7.8 km away over the city of Vienna, Austria at night. Detection of one photon from our…
