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…
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…
Eavesdropping and countermeasures for backflash side channel in quantum cryptography
Paulo Vinicius Pereira Pinheiro, Poompong Chaiwongkhot, Shihan Sajeed +5
Quantum key distribution (QKD) promises information theoretic secure key as long as the device performs as assumed in the theoretical model. One of the assumptions is an absence of…
Laser annealing heals radiation damage in avalanche photodiodes
Jin Gyu Lim, Elena Anisimova, Brendon L. Higgins +3
Avalanche photodiodes (APDs) are a practical option for space-based quantum communications requiring single-photon detection. However, radiation damage to APDs significantly increa…
