Multimode Fiber Coupled Superconducting Nanowire Single Photon Detectors with High Detection Efficiency and Time Resolution

Jin Chang, Iman Esmaeilzadeh, Johannes W. N. Los +7

In the past decade superconducting nanowire single photon detectors (SNSPDs) have gradually become an indispensable part of any demanding quantum optics experiment. Until now, most…

Passively stable distribution of polarisation entanglement over 192 km of deployed optical fibre

Sören Wengerowsky, Siddarth Koduru Joshi, Fabian Steinlechner +14

Quantum key distribution (QKD) based on entangled photon pairs holds the potential for repeater-based quantum networks connecting clients over long distance. We demonstrate long-di…
