Long distance free-space quantum key distribution
In the age of information and globalisation, secure communication as well as the protection of sensitive data against unauthorised access are of utmost importance. Quantum cryptography currently provides the only way to exchange a cryptographic key between two parties in an unconditionally secure fashion. Owing to losses and noise of today’s optical fibre and detector technology, at present qua...
متن کاملLong Distance Quantum Key Distribution without Quantum Memory
A quantum cryptography scheme for lossy channel is proposed which does not employ quantum memory. The scheme also does not use quantum codes and is rather simple for practical implementation. The goal of quantum cryptography is to secretly distribute the key (a string of bits) between the two spatially separated legitimate users. The existing quantum cryptography schemes can be classified into ...
متن کاملLong-Distance Quantum Key Distribution over Telecom Fiber
Long-Distance Quantum Key Distribution over Telecom Fiber Lei-Lei Huang Master of Applied Science Graduate Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering University of Toronto 2006 We present two long-distance quantum key distribution (QKD) systems over telecom fiber. The first one is the Sagnac QKD system implementing standard BB84 protocol. Novel polarization-insensitive phase modulators are...
متن کاملLong-distance entanglement-based quantum key distribution over optical fiber.
We report the first entanglement-based quantum key distribution (QKD) experiment over a 100-km optical fiber. We used superconducting single photon detectors based on NbN nanowires that provide high-speed single photon detection for the 1.5-mum telecom band, an efficient entangled photon pair source that consists of a fiber coupled periodically poled lithium niobate waveguide and ultra low loss...
متن کاملLong-distance practical quantum key distribution by entanglement swapping.
We develop a model for practical, entanglement-based long-distance quantum key distribution employing entanglement swapping as a key building block. Relying only on existing off-the-shelf technology, we show how to optimize resources so as to maximize secret key distribution rates. The tools comprise lossy transmission links, such as telecom optical fibers or free space, parametric down-convers...
