Description

Full text: Entangled photon pairs are essential for the implementation of quantum communication protocols. The most common is the polarization entangled photons produced from a parametric down conversion (PDC) source. J.D Franson proposed an experiment for the test of Bell's inequality with energy time entangled photons, experimentally realized by P. G. Kwiat et al using photon pairs from a PDC source. J. Brendel et al , realized a discrete version of energy-time entanglement, the time-bin entanglement by pumping PDC crystal at two well defined times set by a pump interferometer. Based on this discrete version C. Simon and J-P Poizat PRL 94, 110501 (2005) proposed a scheme for generating time-bin entangled photon pairs from quantum dots. Here we will be presenting our experimental setup and the progress towards the generation of time-bin entangled photons from quantum dots. (author)
