متن کاملMultiple-DWDM-channel heralded single-photon source based on a periodically poled lithium niobate waveguide.
We report on the experimental realization of a multiple-DWDM-channel heralded single-photon source in a periodically poled lithium niobate waveguide. Our single photon at the telecom wavelength covers more than 40 channels of the ITU grid. All channels have virtually identical efficiencies, and the multi-photon emission probability is reduced by a factor up to more than 150 compared to a Poisso...
متن کاملPeriodically poled lithium niobate waveguide sum-frequency generator for efficient single-photon detection at communication wavelengths.
We present a device to facilitate single-photon detection at communication wavelengths based on continuous-wave sum-frequency generation with an upconversion efficiency exceeding 90%. Sum-frequency generation in a periodically poled lithium niobate waveguide is used to upconvert signal photons to the near infrared, where detection can be performed efficiently by use of silicon avalanche photodi...
متن کاملA Frequency-nondegenerate Entanglement Source Using Periodically-poled Lithium Niobate
We demonstrate efficient generation of highly nondegenerate photon pairs with a type-I phase-matched, periodically-poled lithium niobate parametric downconverter. The signal photons at 800 nm and the idler photons at 1600 nm were generated in a collinear-propagation configuration with an inferred pair generation rate of 1.4×107/s/mW of pump power. Detection of a signal photon triggered a thermo...
متن کاملOn the distribution of 1550-nm photon pairs efficiently generated using a periodically poled lithium niobate waveguide
We report on the generation of photon pairs in the 1550-nm band suitable for longdistance fiber-optic quantum key distribution. The photon pairs were generated in a periodically poled lithium niobate waveguide with a high conversion-efficiency. Using a pulsed semiconductor laser with a pulse rate of 800 kHz and a maximum average pump power of 50 μW, we obtained a coincidence rate of 600 s−1. Ou...
