Efficient, narrowband PPKTP source for polarization entangled photons

Abstract

We present a PPKTP based source for polarization-entangled photon pairs with an efficiency for generating photon pairs into singlemode fibers that should be high enough for a loophole free test of a Bell inequality.

We present a dual source of swappable entanglement in the near infrared for local quantum networking and free-space quantum links.

Narrowband telecom-band polarization-entangled photon source by superposed monolithic cavities

M. Gao, Yin‐Hai Li, Yan Li +4 more

A high-quality narrowband polarization-entangled source in the telecom band is preferred to avoid frequency dispersion for long-distance transmission in optical fibers and to efficiently couple with telecom-band quantum memories. Here, we report narrowband, telecom-band, polarization-entangled photon pair generation based on the superposition of single-longitudinal-mode photon pairs from two monolithic nonlinear crystal cavities in a passively stable interferometer based on beam displacers. The photon pairs generated from the cavities exhibit a high coincidence to accidental coincidence ratio of 20 000 and a bandwidth below 500 MHz. Two-photon polarization interference, Bell inequality, and quantum state tomography are performed to indicate the high quality of the entangled source. The current configuration demonstrates greater stability than traditional free space cavity-enhanced polarization-entangled state generation, which is promising for quantum communication applications.
