Practical quantum key distribution over a 48-km optical fiber network
The secure distribution of the secret random bit sequences known as “key” material, is an essential precursor to their use for the encryption and decryption of confidential communications. Quantum cryptography is a new technique for secure key distribution with single-photon transmissions: Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle ensures that an adversary can neither successfully tap the key transmis...
متن کاملHigh Speed Quantum Key Distribution Over Optical Fiber Network System1
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has developed a number of complete fiber-based high-speed quantum key distribution (QKD) systems that includes an 850 nm QKD system for a local area network (LAN), a 1310 nm QKD system for a metropolitan area network (MAN), and a 3-node quantum network controlled by a network manager. This paper discusses the key techniques used to imple...
متن کاملMeasurement-device-independent quantum key distribution over 200 km.
Measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution (MDIQKD) protocol is immune to all attacks on detection and guarantees the information-theoretical security even with imperfect single-photon detectors. Recently, several proof-of-principle demonstrations of MDIQKD have been achieved. Those experiments, although novel, are implemented through limited distance with a key rate less than 0.1 ...
متن کاملLong-distance quantum key distribution in optical fibre
Use of low-noise detectors can both increase the secret bit rate of long-distance quantum key distribution (QKD) and dramatically extend the length of a fibre optic link over which secure key can be distributed. Previous work has demonstrated use of ultra-low-noise transitionedge sensors (TESs) in a QKD system with transmission over 50 km. In this work, we demonstrate the potential of the TESs ...
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...
