Mode-pairing quantum key distribution [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2022 Measurement-device-independent QKD schemes suffer from a trade-off between ease of implementation (avoiding the need for global phase locking) and high rates (quadratic improvement in rate).

Security of Quantum Key Distribution
IEEE Access, 2016 The security issues facing quantum key distribution (QKD) are explained, herein focusing on those issues that are cryptographic and information theoretic in nature and not those based on physics. The problem of security criteria is addressed.

Decoy State Quantum Key Distribution [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2005 There has been much interest in quantum key distribution. Experimentally, quantum key distribution over 150 km of commercial Telecom fibers has been successfully performed. The crucial issue in quantum key distribution is its security. Unfortunately, all

Simple Proof of Security of the BB84 Quantum Key Distribution Protocol [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2000 We prove that the 1984 protocol of Bennett and Brassard (BB84) for quantum key distribution is secure. We first give a key distribution protocol based on entanglement purification, which can be proven secure using methods from Lo and Chau's proof of ...

Quantum Key Distribution [PDF]
, 2011 This chapter describes the application of lasers, specifically diode lasers, in the area of quantum key distribution (QKD). First, we motivate the distribution of cryptographic keys based on quantum physical properties of light, give a brief introduction

Layered Quantum Key Distribution [PDF]
Physical Review A, 2017 We introduce a family of QKD protocols for distributing shared random keys within a network of $n$ users. The advantage of these protocols is that any possible key structure needed within the network, including broadcast keys shared among subsets of ...
