Thermo-mechanical design for a miniaturized quantum light source on board the SpooQy-1 CubeSat
Huai Ying Lim, Tom Vergoossen, Robert Bedington +8
This paper presents the thermo-mechanical design of the quantum light source on board SpooQy-1, a 3U CubeSat that was deployed from the International Space Station on 17th June 201…
Entanglement demonstration on board a nano-satellite
Aitor Villar, Alexander Lohrmann, Xueliang Bai +14
Global quantum networks for secure communication can be realised using large fleets of satellites distributing entangled photon-pairs between ground-based nodes. Because the cost o…
Satellite quantum communications when man-in-the-middle attacks are excluded
Tom Vergoossen, Robert Bedington, James A Grieve +1
An application of quantum communications is the transmission of qubits to create shared symmetric encryption keys in a process called Quantum Key Distribution (QKD). Contrary to pu…
Satellite constellations for trusted node QKD networks
Tom Vergoossen, Sergio Loarte, Robert Bedington +2
Quantum key distribution from satellites becomes particularly valuable when it can be used on a large network and on-demand to provide a symmetric encryption key to any two nodes.…
Demonstrating Miniaturised, entangled photon-pair sources on board nano satellites to enable future QKD missions
Rakhitha C. M. R. B. Chandrasekara, Robert Bedington, Xueliang Bai +7
We report on our progress developing highly-miniaturised, polarisation-entangled, photon pair sources for CubeSats. We have a correlated photon-pair source in orbit in the NUS Gala…
Progress in satellite quantum key distribution
Robert Bedington, Juan Miguel Arrazola, Alexander Ling
Quantum key distribution (QKD) is a family of protocols for growing a private encryption key between two parties. Despite much progress, all ground-based QKD approaches have a dist…
