摘要： A quantum key generation system including two photon detector units, two photon entanglement chains extending between the two photon detector units, and a plurality of multicore fiber links each including at least two non-uniform cores structurally configured to provide non-uniform photon propagation delay. Each photon entanglement chain includes at least one quantum repeater structurally configured to entangle a pair of photons and first and second terminating quantum memories optically coupled the quantum repeater using the multicore fiber links such that photons received by the first and the second terminating quantum memories are entangled with photons entangled by the quantum repeater. The first and second terminating quantum memories of each of the two photon entanglement chains form first and second cross-chain quantum repeaters, and the first and the second photon detector units are structurally configured to receive the measurable entangled particles generated by the first and second cross-chain quantum repeaters, respectively.

摘要： An isotopically-altered, silica based optical fiber is provided having lower losses, broader bandwidth, and broader Raman gain spectrum characteristics than conventional silica-based fiber. A heavier, less naturally abundant isotope of silicon or oxygen is substituted for a lighter, more naturally abundant isotope to shift the infrared absorption to a slightly longer wavelength. In one embodiment, oxygen-18 is substituted for the much more naturally abundant oxygen-16 at least in the core region of the fiber. The resulting isotopically-altered fiber has a minimum loss of 0.044 dB/km less than conventional fiber, and a bandwidth that is 17 percent broader for a loss range between 0.044-0.034 dB/km. The fiber may be easily manufactured with conventional fiber manufacturing equipment by way of a plasma chemical vapor deposition technique. When a 50 percent substitution of oxygen-18 for oxygen-16 is made in the core region of the fiber, the Raman gain spectrum is substantially broadened.

摘要： Disclosed are systems and methods for cutting one or more glass sheets. A system is provided comprising a first mirror having a first reflective surface and a second reflective surface that is spaced from and opposes the first reflective surface to define a cavity between the mirrors. An aperture can be defined in the first mirror. Furthermore, a laser beam can be provided that is configured to emit a beam through the aperture into the cavity. Beams reflected in the cavity, in one aspect, define a common focus point through which the glass sheet can be translated to cause the cutting of the glass sheets. A means for translating the glass sheet through the cavity is provided, in one aspect.
