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…
Energy-time entanglement preservation in plasmon-assisted light transmission
Sylvain Fasel, Nicolas Gisin, Hugo Zbinden +3
We report on experimental evidences of the preservation of energy-time entanglement for extraordinary plasmonic light transmission through sub-wavelength metallic hole arrays, and…
Energy-time entangled qutrits: Bell tests and quantum communication
R. T. Thew, S. Tanzilli, A. Acin +2
We have developed a scheme to generate, control, transmit and measure entangled photonic qutrits (two photons each of dimension d = 3). A Bell test of this source has previously be…
Long distance entanglement swapping with photons from separated sources
H. de Riedmatten, I. Marcikic, J. A. W. van Houwelingen +3
We report the first experimental realization of entanglement swapping over large distances in optical fibers. Two photons separated by more than two km of optical fibers are entang…
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…
Photon-bunching measurement after 2x25km of standard optical fibers
M. Halder, S. Tanzilli, H. de Riedmatten +3
To show the feasibility of a long distance partial Bell-State measurement, a Hong-Ou-Mandel experiment with coherent photons is reported. Pairs of degenerate photons at telecom wav…
Distribution of time-bin qubits over 50 km of optical fiber
I. Marcikic, H. de Riedmatten, W. Tittel +3
We report experimental distribution of time-bin entangled qubits over 50 km of optical fibers. Using actively stabilized preparation and measurement devices we demonstrate violatio…
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…
