Repeated radiation damage and thermal annealing of avalanche photodiodes
Ian DSouza, Jean-Philippe Bourgoin, Brendon L. Higgins +6
Avalanche photodiodes (APDs) are well-suited for single-photon detection on quantum communication satellites as they are a mature technology with high detection efficiency without…
Hong-Ou-Mandel interference of unconventional temporal laser modes
Sascha Agne, Jeongwan Jin, Katanya B. Kuntz +3
The Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM) effect ranks among the most notable quantum interference phenomena, and is central to many applications in quantum technologies. The fundamental effect app…
Adaptive optics benefit for quantum key distribution uplink from ground to a satellite
Christopher J. Pugh, Jean-Francois Lavigne, Jean-Philippe Bourgoin +2
For quantum communications, the use of Earth-orbiting satellites to extend distances has gained significant attention in recent years, exemplified in particular by the launch of th…
Genuine time-bin-encoded quantum key distribution over a turbulent depolarizing free-space channel
Jeongwan Jin, Jean-Philippe Bourgoin, Ramy Tannous +5
Despite its widespread use in fiber optics, encoding quantum information in photonic time-bin states is usually considered impractical for free-space quantum communication as turbu…
Eavesdropper's ability to attack a free-space quantum-key-distribution receiver in atmospheric turbulence
Poompong Chaiwongkhot, Katanya B. Kuntz, Yanbao Zhang +6
The ability of an eavesdropper (Eve) to perform an intercept-resend attack on a free-space quantum key distribution (QKD) receiver by precisely controlling the incidence angle of a…
Numeric estimation of resource requirements for a practical polarization-frame alignment scheme for QKD
Brendon L. Higgins, Jean-Philippe Bourgoin, Thomas Jennewein
Due to physical orientations and birefringence effects, practical quantum information protocols utilizing optical polarization need to handle misalignment between preparation and m…
