Quantum information protocols tend to involve more and more entangled photon pairs, for enabling advanced quantum tasks. To compensate for the low success efficiency of these protocols, one can increase the repetition rate of the emitted pairs, up to current telecom standard (40 GHz). In this context, we propose a realization of ultra-fast...

We report a realization of ultra-fast photon pair sources, specif- ically designed for efficient, long-distance, quantum relay operation. As a viable solution, our sources are capable to deliver high quality single photon pairs at high repetition rate, guaranteeing efficient operational condition for intended protocol.

We report a versatile and practical approach for generating high-quality polarization entanglement in a fully guided-wave fashion. Our setup relies on a high-brilliance type-0 waveguide generator producing paired photon at a telecom wavelength associated with an advanced energy-time to polarisation transcriber. The latter is capable of creating...

Entanglement has evolved from being a spooky interaction towards a key resource of real-life applications such as absolute secure communication. Today, quantum networking devices are commercially available, typically taking advantage of time-bin or polarisation entanglement, the latter one doubtlessly being easier to analyse thanks to...

We report a teleportation experiment involving narrowband entangled photons at 1560 nm and qubit photons at 795 nm emulated by faint laser pulses. A nonlinear difference frequency generation stage converts the 795 nm photons to 1560 nm in order to enable interference with one photon out of the pairs, i.e., at the same wavelength. The spectral...
