Autor: Yang Lu, Xiao Ai, Mala Sadik, Richard W. Nock

Publikováno v: Optical Sensing and Detection VI.

In this paper, a novel Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) based instrument for Time Correlated Photon Counting (TCPC) is reported which takes advantage of the photon number resolving ability of newer single photon detectors technologies, such as si

The ability to accurately observe the Earth's carbon cycles from space gives scientists an important tool to analyze climate change. Current space-borne Integrated-Path Differential Absorption (IPDA) lidar concepts have the potential to meet this nee

We demonstrate a client-server quantum key distribution (QKD) scheme, with large resources such as laser and detectors situated at the server-side, which is accessible via telecom-fibre, to a client requiring only an on-chip polarisation rotator, tha

We report the characterization of a universal set of logic gates for one-way quantum computing using a four-photon `star' cluster state generated by fusing photons from two independent photonic crystal fibre sources. We obtain a fidelity for the clus

Publikováno v: Applied Optics. 50:4478

A high-resolution random-modulation continuous wave lidar for surface detection using a semiconductor laser diode is presented. The laser diode is intensity modulated with the pseudorandom binary sequence. Its enhanced resolution is achieved via inte
