Testing the photon-number statistics of a quantum key distribution light source
J. F. Dynes, M. Lucamarini, K. A. Patel +3
A commonly held tenet is that lasers well above threshold emit photons in a coherent state, which follow a Poissonian statistics when measured in photon number. This feature is oft…
Room temperature single-photon detectors for high bit rate quantum key distribution
L. C. Comandar, B. Fröhlich, M. Lucamarini +6
We report room temperature operation of telecom wavelength single-photon detectors for high bit rate quantum key distribution (QKD). Room temperature operation is achieved using In…
Quantum key distribution for 10 Gb/s dense wavelength division multiplexing networks
K. A. Patel, J. F. Dynes, M. Lucamarini +5
We demonstrate quantum key distribution (QKD) with bidirectional 10 Gb/s classical data channels in a single fiber using dense wavelength division multiplexing. Record secure key r…
Efficient decoy-state quantum key distribution with quantified security
M. Lucamarini, K. A. Patel, J. F. Dynes +6
We analyse the finite-size security of the efficient Bennett-Brassard 1984 protocol implemented with decoy states and apply the results to a gigahertz-clocked quantum key distribut…
Coexistence of high-bit-rate quantum key distribution and data on optical fiber
K. A. Patel, J. F. Dynes, I. Choi +5
Quantum key distribution (QKD) uniquely allows distribution of cryptographic keys with security verified by quantum mechanical limits. Both protocol execution and subsequent applic…
Gigacount/second photon detection with InGaAs avalanche photodiodes
K. A. Patel, J. F. Dynes, A. W. Sharpe +3
We demonstrate high count rate single photon detection at telecom wavelengths using a thermoelectrically-cooled semiconductor diode. Our device consists of a single InGaAs avalanch…
