A Fiber-Based Source of Degenerate Polarization-Entangled Photons in the Telecom Band

We present a high quality degenerate source of polarization-entangled photons (0.96 ± 0.01 fidelity with a maximally entangled state). Reverse Hong-Ou-Mandel interference in an optical-fiber Sagnac loop deterministically separates the indistinguishable photons.

Fiber-based telecom-band degenerate-frequency source of entangled photon pairs

Jun Chen, Kim Fook Lee, Chuang Liang +1 more

We demonstrate the generation of polarization-entangled photon pairs of degenerate frequency for the first time, to the best of our knowledge, in standard optical fiber using a novel dual-pump, counterpropagating configuration. Two-photon interference with >97% visibility is obtained. The purity of the photon source, as characterized by the ratio of coincidence to accidental-coincidence counts, is shown to be as high as 116 under suitable operating conditions.

Fiber-based frequency-degenerate polarization-entanglement photon pair sources for information encoding

Feng Zhu, Wei Zhang, Yidong Huang

We propose and experimentally demonstrate a generation scheme of telecom-band fiber-based frequency-degenerate polarization-entanglement photon pair source. Basing on the vector spontaneous four wave mixing process in a Sagnac fiber loop along the clockwise and counter-clockwise directions, two frequency-degenerate and polarization orthogonal biphoton states generate and then lead to the polarization entanglement states by the interference at the beamsplitter. The raw fringe visibilities of the two-photon interferences are 97% and 92%, respectively. Information can be encoded on the generated photon pairs using the polarization entangled Bell states. It is demonstrated by a simplified Bell state measurement with a fringe visibility of 83%.
