Experimental wavelength-division-multiplexed photon-pair distribution

Opt Lett. 2013 Jan 1;38(1):34-6. doi: 10.1364/OL.38.000034.

Abstract

We have experimentally implemented the distribution of photon pairs produced by spontaneous parametric downconversion through telecom dense-wavelength-division-multiplexing filters. Using the measured counts and coincidences between symmetric channels, we evaluate the maximum fringe visibility that can be obtained with polarization-entangled photons and compare different filter technologies.
