Public award description
IGF::OT::IGF A SUCCESSFUL SBIR PHASE II RESULTED IN A 2014 DELIVERY FROM ADVR OF A 9 MHZ SOURCE OF 800 NM AND 1550 NM ENTANGLED PHOTONS FOR THE PURPOSE OF DEVELOPING SECURE QUANTUM COMMUNICATIONS. THIS SBIR PHASE III PROPOSAL IS A RESULT OF A NEED OF NASA TO FURTHER INCREASE THE ENTANGLED PHOTON GENERATION RATES TO ENABLE HIGH DATA RATES. AT LEAST AN ORDER OF MAGNITUDE IMPROVEMENT IN GENERATION RATE IS EXPECTED WITH A 100 MHZ PULSED SOURCE OF 800 NM AND 1550 NM ENTANGLED PHOTONS TO BE DEVELOPED USING PULSE SLICING OF A CONTINUOUS WAVE BEAM. THE SOURCE WILL BE SUITABLE FOR OPERATION IN A LABORATORY ENVIRONMENT AND WILL HAVE APPROPRIATE CONNECTIVITY TO INTERFACE WITH THE EXISTING PHOTON DOWN CONVERSION.
