Generating polarization-entangled photon pairs using cross-spliced birefringent fibers
Evan Meyer-Scott, Vincent Roy, Jean-Philippe Bourgoin +3
We demonstrate a novel polarization-entangled photon-pair source based on standard birefringent polarization-maintaining optical fiber. The source consists of two stretches of fibe…
Novel High-Speed Polarization Source for Decoy-State BB84 Quantum Key Distribution over Free Space and Satellite Links
Zhizhong Yan, Evan Meyer-Scott, Jean-Philippe Bourgoin +5
To implement the BB84 decoy-state quantum key distribution (QKD) protocol over a lossy ground-satellite quantum uplink requires a source that has high repetition rate of short lase…
A comprehensive design and performance analysis of LEO satellite quantum communication
J. -P. Bourgoin, E. Meyer-Scott, B. L. Higgins +9
Optical quantum communication utilizing satellite platforms has the potential to extend the reach of quantum key distribution (QKD) from terrestrial limits of ~200 km to global sca…
Optimal pair generation rate for Entanglement-based QKD
Catherine Holloway, John A. Doucette, Christopher Erven +2
In entanglement-based quantum key distribution (QKD), the generation and detection of multi-photon modes leads to a trade-off between entanglement visibility and two-fold coinciden…
Studying Free-Space Transmission Statistics and Improving Free-Space QKD in the Turbulent Atmosphere
C. Erven, B. Heim, E. Meyer-Scott +4
The statistical fluctuations in free-space links in the turbulent atmosphere are important for the distribution of quantum signals. To that end, we first study statistics generated…
