Recent progress in quantum communication and quantum-enhanced imaging
Fri, 13/10/2023 - 14:00 to 15:00
Location:
Speaker:
Professor Feihu Xu
Affiliation:
University of Science and Technology of China
Synopsis:
In the first part, I will present our recent progress to solve the challenges of security, long-distance and practicality toward the global quantum network. I will primarily talk our efforts on device-independent QKD [PRL 128, 110506; PRL 129, 050502 (2022)], high-speed quantum communication [Nature Photonics 17, 416 (2023)] and twin-field QKD [PRL 130, 250802 (2023)]. In the second part, I will talk our work to push the general applications of single-photon imaging, including single-photon LiDAR algorithm and experiment [IEEE TPAMI 45, 4180 (2023); Optica 8, 344 (2021)], and non-line-of-sight (NLOS) imaging [PNAS 118, e2024468118; PRL 127, 053602 (2021)].
