Highly Efficient Source for Indistinguishable Photons of Controlled Shape

Peter Nisbet, Jerome Dilley, Axel Kuhn

We demonstrate a straightforward implementation of a push-button like single-photon source which is based on a strongly coupled atom-cavity system. The device operates intermittent…

Single Photons Made-to-Measure

Genko S. Vasilev, Daniel Ljunggren, Axel Kuhn

We investigate the efficiency of atom-cavity based photon-generation schemes to deliver single photons of arbitrary temporal shape. Our model applies to Raman transitions in three-…

Characterization of an asynchronous source of heralded single photons generated at a wavelength of 1550 nm

Maria Tengner, Daniel Ljunggren

We make a thorough analysis of heralded single photon sources regarding how factors such as the detector gate-period, the photon rates, the fiber coupling efficiencies, and the sys…

Narrowband polarization-entangled photon pairs distributed over a WDM link for qubit networks

S. Sauge, M. Swillo, S. Albert-Seifried +5

We present a bright, narrowband, portable, quasi-phase-matched two-crystal source generating polarization-entangled photon pairs at 809 nm and 1555 nm at a maximum rate of 1.2 10^6…

Theory and experiment of entanglement in a quasi-phase-matched two-crystal source

Daniel Ljunggren, Maria Tengner, Philip Marsden +1

We report new results regarding a source of polarization entangled photon-pairs created by the process of spontaneous parametric downconversion in two orthogonally oriented, period…

Optimal focusing for maximal collection of entangled narrow-band photon pairs into single-mode fibers

Daniel Ljunggren, Maria Tengner

We present a theoretical and experimental investigation of the emission characteristics and the flux of photon pairs generated by spontaneous parametric downconversion in quasi-pha…
