An ultraviolet laser generates a coherent beam, which is downconverted to produce pairs of frequency-entangled photons. For each entangled pair, a first photon is sent along a first path and a second photon is sent along a second path. A first detector detects those photons sent along the first path, and a second detector detects those photons sent along the second path. The detection is performed in a single photon regime. Coincidence counting is performed on outputs of the detectors, including comparing leading edges on outputs of the first and second detectors within a time window.
