Abstract

Techniques for reducing the number of detectors required to perform the measurements associated with quantum entanglement and quantum communication using optical qubits are described herein. The techniques comprise using delay lines between beam splitting optical elements to delay the arrival of photons at a detector such that a shared detector can be used to detect multiple photons for a correlation measurement with the detections occurring at different times. Thereby reducing the hardware requirements for the detectors by half and substantially reducing the cost and complexity of systems to detect and process qubits.
