Fast quantum key distribution with decoy number states
Daryl Achilles, Ekaterina Rogacheva, Alexei Trifonov
We investigate the use of photon number states to identify eavesdropping attacks on quantum key distribution (QKD) schemes. The technique is based on the fact that different photon…
Direct, Loss-Tolerant Characterization of Nonclassical Photon Statistics
Daryl Achilles, Christine Silberhorn, Ian A. Walmsley
We experimentally investigate a method of directly characterizing the photon number distribution of nonclassical light beams that is tolerant to losses and makes use only of standa…
Measurement of geometric phase for mixed states using single photon interferometry
Marie Ericsson, Daryl Achilles, Julio T. Barreiro +3
Geometric phase may enable inherently fault-tolerant quantum computation. However, due to potential decoherence effects, it is important to understand how such phases arise for {\i…
Photon number resolving detection using time-multiplexing
Daryl Achilles, Christine Silberhorn, Cezary Sliwa +6
Detectors that can resolve photon number are needed in many quantum information technologies. In order to be useful in quantum information processing, such detectors should be simp…
Fiber-assisted detection with photon number resolution
Daryl Achilles, Christine Silberhorn, Cezary Sliwa +2
We report the development of a photon-number resolving detector based on a fiber-optical setup and a pair of standard avalanche photodiodes. The detector is capable of resolving in…
