Two-Photon Interference for Quantum Cryptography with a Non-Maximally Entangled Photon Pair

Kaoru Shimizu, Hiroki Takesue, Kiyoshi Tamaki

This paper proposes a novel scheme of quantum cryptography with the two-photon interference of a non-maximally entangled photon pair. The security is based on the impossibility of the local unitary transformation between the certain non-maximally entangled states.

Non-classical interference experiments with photon pairs

L. Mandeļ

Although interference of light is commonly regarded as a classical wave phenomenon, interesting fourth‐order interference effects are exhibited by correlated photon pairs, which violate classical probability. The effects manifest themselves in that the visibility is larger than allowed by classical theory, or the interference is independent of the light intensity, in violation of classical theory. In some situations classical optics predicts no interference at all, whereas quantum optics does. The interference technique has been used to measure time intervals between two photons with fsec resolution. Several examples of experiments in which non‐classical interference effects were observed will be described.

Quantum interference of non-diffracting beams

Solange Bessa Cavalcanti, J. Miguel Hickmann, E. J. S. Fonseca

Superimposed Bessel beams self-imaging effect is investigated using photon pairs produced by a spontaneous parametric down-conversion source, instead of classical light. Results show that the photon pairs transmitted by the two annular slits form an interference pattern analogous to the ones produced by the Talbot effect, which can be explained using a theory based on the angular spectrum transference from the pump field to the photon pairs.
