Towards High Quality Photonic Polarization Entanglement Distribution at 1.3-[mu]m Telecom Wavelength

Polarization-entangled photons at 1.3 mum from a fiber-coupled PPKTP waveguide are analyzed using a remotely located superconducting nanowire single-photon detector, yielding 97.5% quantum-interference visibility and 0.8 coincidence/s at 96 muW pump power.
