Description
The Telecom-Broadband Hyperentangled Photon Source (HEPS-1000 Series) from OZ Optics is a pioneering, compact, and rugged solution designed for advanced quantum communication systems, including quantum superdense teleportation and inter-satellite quantum links. Engineered with periodically-poled silica fiber (PPSF) technology, it offers alignment-free, all-fiber construction for robust operation in defense and aerospace applications.
This turn-key, room-temperature operated source produces hyperentangled photon pairs—simultaneously entangled in both polarization and frequency—with a typical fidelity of 98%. The device boasts a broad telecom-bandwidth (~80 nm), spanning the C- and L-bands, and supports deterministic routing of biphotons to dual output ports. Users can further shape the output via fixed or programmable filters, enabling high-dimensional entanglement and frequency comb generation.
Thanks to its compact footprint, lightweight design, and low power consumption, the HEPS-1000 integrates seamlessly into portable or embedded quantum systems. It’s the ideal platform for high-dimensional quantum information processing, superdense coding, and frequency-polarization teleportation—pushing the frontier of quantum photonics.
