Resumen
Artículo de publicación SCOPUS We report on an electronic coincidence detection circuit for quantum photonic applications
implemented on a field-programmable gate array (FPGA), which records each the time separation between
detection events coming from single-photon detectors. We achieve a coincidence window as narrow as
500 ps with a series of optimizations on a readily-available and affordable FPGA development board.
Our implementation allows real-time visualization of coincidence measurements for multiple coincidence
window widths simultaneously. To demonstrate the advantage of our high-resolution visualization, we certified the generation of polarized entangled photons by collecting data from multiple coincidence windows
with minimal accidental counts, obtaining a violation of the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) Bell
inequality by more than 338 standard deviations. Our results have shown the applicability of our electronic
design in the field of quantum information
