Single Photon Approach for Chirality Sensing
We developed a high sensitivity optical sensor for circular birefringence using a heralded photon source. The sensor can be employed for chirality measurements and, being based on single photons, can be exploited for fragile biological sample or in ...

Single-Photon and Photon-Number-Resolving Detectors
Several important advances were reported in single-photon detectors and photon-number-resolving detectors in 2011. New materials with smaller superconducting gaps were demonstrated for superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs) that led to

Reconfigurable photonics with on-chip single-photon detectors [PDF]
AbstractIntegrated quantum photonics offers a promising path to scale up quantum optics experiments by miniaturizing and stabilizing complex laboratory setups. Central elements of quantum integrated photonics are quantum emitters, memories, detectors, and reconfigurable photonic circuits.

Controllable single-photon routing between two waveguides by two giant two-level atoms
We investigate the single-photon quantum routing composed of two infinite waveguides coupled to two giant two-level atoms. The exact expressions of the single-photon transmission and reflection amplitudes are derived with the real-space approach.

Single Photon Quantum Cryptography [PDF]
We report the full implementation of a quantum cryptography protocol using a stream of single photon pulses generated by a stable and efficient source operating at room temperature. The single photon pulses are emitted on demand by a single nitrogen-vacancy (NV) color center in a diamond nanocrystal. The quantum bit error rate is less that 4.6% and the

Subcentimeter depth resolution using a single-photon counting time-of-flight laser ranging system at 1550 nm wavelength [PDF]
We demonstrate subcentimeter depth profiling at a stand off distance of 330m using a time-of-flight approach based on time-correlated single-photon counting.
