Quantum communication has been rapidly developed due to its unconditional security and successfully implemented through optical fibers and free-space air in experiment. To build a complete quantum communication network involving satellites…

If a photon interacts with a member of an entangled photon pair via a so-called Bell-state measurement (BSM), its state is teleported over principally arbitrary distances onto the second member of the pair. Starting in 1997, this puzzling…

We study the role of the electromagnetic field's frequency in time precision measurements using single photons as a paradigmatic system. For such, we independently identify the contributions of intensity and spectral resources and show that…
