Coherent frequency-down-conversion interface for quantum repeaters (1006.4585v2)
Published 23 Jun 2010 in quant-ph and physics.optics
Abstract: We report a coherence-preserving photon frequency down-conversion experiment based on difference-frequency generation in a periodically poled Lithium niobate waveguide, at the single-photon level. The coherence of the process has been demonstrated by measuring the phase coherence of pseudo single-photon time-bin qubits after frequency conversion with an interference visibility of > 96 %. This interface could be of interest for quantum repeater based hybrid networks.
