Towards practical and fast Quantum Cryptography
Nicolas Gisin, Gregoire Ribordy, Hugo Zbinden +3
We present a new protocol for practical quantum cryptography, tailored for an implementation with weak coherent pulses. The key is obtained by a very simple time-of-arrival measure…
High quality asynchronous heralded single photon source at telecom wavelength
Sylvain Fasel, Olivier Alibart, Alexios Beveratos +4
We report on the experimental realization and characterization of an asynchronous heralded single photon source based on spontaneous parametric down conversion. Photons at 1550nm a…
Quantum key distribution over 30km of standard fiber using energy-time entangled photon pairs: a comparison of two chromatic dispersion reduction methods
Sylvain Fasel, Nicolas Gisin, Grégoire Ribordy +1
We present a full implementation of a quantum key distribution system using energy-time entangled photon pairs and functioning with a 30km standard telecom fiber quantum channel. T…
Experimental realization of entangled qutrits for quantum communication
R. T. Thew, A. Acin, H. Zbinden +1
We have experimentally realized a technique to generate, control and measure entangled qutrits, 3-dimensional quantum systems. This scheme uses spontaneous parametric down converte…
Quantum communications with time-bin entangled photons: long distance quantum teleportation and quantum repeaters
N. Gisin, I. Marcikic, H. de Riedmatten +2
Using 2 km of standard telecom optical fibres, we teleport qubits carried by photons of 1310 nm wavelength to qubits in another lab carried by a photons of 1550 nm wavelength. The…
Creating high dimensional time-bin entanglement using mode-locked lasers
Hugues de Riedmatten, Ivan Marcikic, Hugo Zbinden +1
We present a new scheme to generate high dimensional entanglement between two photonic systems. The idea is based on parametric down conversion with a sequence of pump pulses gener…
