Abstract: | The interferometry of single-photon pulses has been used to implement quantum technology systems, like quantum key distribution, interaction-free measurement and some other quantum communication protocols. In most of these implementations, Mach–Zehnder, Michelson and Fabry–Pérot interferometers are the most used. In this work we present optical setups for interaction-free measurement, quantum key distribution, quantum secret sharing and secure classical prisoners' dilemma game using the Sagnac interferometer. The proposed setups are described and as well the quantum protocols using them are explained. |
