摘要
We demonstrate the multiplexing of a weak coherent and a quantum state of light in a single telecommunication fiber. For this purpose, we make use of spontaneous parametric down conversion and quantum frequency conversion to generate photon pairs at 854 nm and the telecom O-band. The herald photon at 854 nm triggers a telecom C-band laser pulse. The telecom single photon (O-band) and the laser pulse (C-band) are combined and coupled to a standard telecom fiber. Low-background time correlation between the weak coherent and quantum signal behind the fiber shows successful multiplexing.
