Optimal filtering and generation of entangled photons for quantum applications in the presence of noise (opens in new tab)

Author(s): Jordan M. Thomas, Andrew R. Cameron, Akil Pathiranage, Si Xie, Raju Valivarthi, Panagiotis Spentzouris, Maria Spiropulu, Cristián Peña, and Prem KumarThe distribution of quantum entanglement and teleportation in real-world environments underlies current efforts in quantum communication and networking, and requires designing devices such that extraneous noise photons do not obscure photon detection. This study analyzes the physics of filtering entangled-photon sources for both high ...
