Multi-mode Time-delay Interferometer for Free-space Quantum Communication

Clinton Cahall, Nurul T. Islam, Daniel J. Gauthier +1

Quantum communication schemes such as quantum key distribution (QKD) and superdense teleportation provide unique opportunities to communicate information securely. Increasingly, op…

High-Speed Low-Crosstalk Detection of a Yb Qubit using Superconducting Nanowire Single Photon Detectors

Stephen Crain, Clinton Cahall, Geert Vrijsen +5

Qubits used in quantum computing tend to suffer from errors, either from the qubit interacting with the environment, or from imperfect control when quantum logic gates are applied.…

Scalable high-rate, high-dimensional quantum key distribution

Nurul T. Islam, Charles Ci Wen Lim, Clinton Cahall +3

We propose and experimentally demonstrate a new scheme for measuring high-dimensional phase states using a two-photon interference technique, which we refer to as quantum-controlle…

Universal Model for the Turn-on Dynamics of Superconducting Nanowire Single-Photon Detectors

Kathryn L. Nicolich, Clinton Cahall, Nurul T. Islam +4

We describe an electrothermal model for the turn-on dynamics of superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs). By extracting a scaling law from a well-known electrother…

Securing quantum key distribution systems using fewer states

Nurul T. Islam, Charles Ci Wen Lim, Clinton Cahall +2

Quantum key distribution (QKD) allows two remote users to establish a secret key in the presence of an eavesdropper. The users share quantum states prepared in two mutually-unbiase…

Robust and stable delay interferometers with application to -dimensional time-frequency quantum key distribution

Nurul T. Islam, Andres Aragoneses, A. Lezama +2

We investigate experimentally a cascade of temperature-compensated unequal-path interferometers that can be used to measure frequency states in a high-dimensional quantum distribut…
