Experimental study of free-space beam propagation for single-photon quantum communications

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We report on the study the propagation of a laser beam over a 144 free-space link. We report on the losses of the channel, the temporal scintillation of the intensity and, by attenuating the beam, the statistic of arrival of single photons.
