Quantum teleportation over 100 km of fiber using highly efficient superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors

Quantum teleportation is an essential quantum operation by which we can transfer an unknown quantum state to a remote location with the help of quantum entanglement and classical communication. Since the first experimental demonstrations using photonic qubits and continuous variables, the distance of photonic quantum teleportation over free space channels has continued to increase and has reached >100 km. On the other hand, quantum teleportation over optical fiber has been challenging, mainly because the multi-fold photon detection that inevitably accompanies quantum teleportation experiments has been very inefficient due to the relatively low detection efficiencies of typical telecom-band single photon detectors. Here, we report efficient quantum teleportation over optical fiber using four high-detection efficiency superconducting nanowire superconducting single-photon detectors (SNSPD) based on MoSi. These SNSPDs make it possible to perform highly-efficient multi-fold photon measurements, allowing us to confirm that the quantum states of input photons were successfully teleported over 100 km of fiber.

MoSi Superconducting Nanowire Single-Photon Detectors on GaAs for On-Chip Integration

Erbe, M., Riad Berrazouane, Simon Geyer +8 more

We report on MoSi-based superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors on a gallium arsenide substrate. MoSi deposited on a passivated GaAs surface has the same critical temperature as MoSi deposited on silicon. The critical temperature decreases slightly on depositing MoSi directly on the native oxide of GaAs. Hence, MoSi works well as a thin-film superconductor on GaAs. We propose that the amorphous structure of MoSi ensures compatibility with the GaAs matrix. Superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs) are fabricated with MoSi on GaAs using a meander-wire design. The SNSPD metrics are very similar to those of devices fabricated with the same procedure on a silicon substrate. We observe a plateau in the response-versus-bias curve signalling a saturated internal quantum efficiency. The plateau remains even at an elevated temperature, 2.2 K, at a wavelength of 980 nm. We achieve a timing jitter of 50 ps and a recovery time of 29 ns. These results point to the promise of integrating MoSi SNSPDs with GaAs photonic circuits.
