  • Patent number: 8031873
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a free-space quantum communication device with atomic filters which are used in the field of quantum cryptography. The free-space quantum communication device of the present invention includes a beam splitter (2), two ?/2 wave plates (3,10), a ?/4 wave plate (4), two polarization beam splitters (5,11), two atomic filters (6,12), two light couplers (7,13), two optical fibers (8,14) and two single-photon detectors (9,15). In the present invention, the interference filter used in the conventional quantum communication device is replaced by ultra-narrow line-width atomic filters. As the pass-band width of atomic filter is narrower than that of the interference filter in magnitude order of 3 and a light noise rejection ratio of 10?5 can be obtained, error rate generated by background light noise can be reduced by magnitude order of 2-3. Further, the distance for carrying out free-space quantum communication can be increased.
