Free‐Space Time‐Bin Encoded Quantum Key Distribution from Near‐ to Mid‐Infrared Wavelengths

Advanced Quantum Technologies, Volume 9, Issue 4, April 2026.
This work investigates free‐space communication based on quantum key distribution (QKD) in the mid‐infrared. Time‐bin encoded QKD is simulated, and it is demonstrated that a free‐space QKD link operating in the mid‐infrared outperforms configurations based on conventional near‐infrared wavelengths under various weather scenarios, with a particular ...
