Fully Passive Quantum Key Distribution

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2023
Passive implementations of quantum key distribution (QKD) sources are highly desirable as they eliminate side-channels that active modulators might introduce. Up till now, passive decoy-state and passive encoding BB84 schemes have both been proposed.

Practical issues of twin-field quantum key distribution

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2019
Twin-field quantum key distribution(TF-QKD) protocol and its variants, such as phase-matching QKD, sending-or-not-sending QKD and no phase post-selection TF-QKD(NPP-TFQKD), are very promising for long-distance applications.

Reconciliation of a Quantum-Distributed Gaussian Key [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Information Theory, 2004
Two parties, Alice and Bob, wish to distill a binary secret key out of a list of correlated variables that they share after running a quantum key distribution protocol based on continuous-spectrum quantum carriers. We present a novel construction that allows the legitimate parties to get equal bit strings out of correlated variables by using a ...

Extending Quantum Error Correction: New Continuous Measurement Protocols and Improved Fault-Tolerant Overhead [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Quantum mechanical applications range from quantum computers to quantum key distribution to teleportation. In these applications, quantum error correction is extremely important for protecting quantum states against decoherence.

Quantum key distribution using quantum dot single-photon emitting diodes in the red and near infrared spectral range

open access: yes, 2012
We report on in-lab free space quantum key distribution (QKD) experiments over 40 cm distance using highly efficient electrically driven quantum dot single-photon sources emitting in the red as well as near-infrared spectral range.

Daylight entanglement-based quantum key distribution with a quantum dot source

open access: yes, 2023
Entanglement-based quantum key distribution can enable secure communication in trusted node-free networks and over long distances. Although implementations exist both in fiber and in free space, the latter approach is often considered challenging due to ...

A Primer to Underwater Quantum Key Distribution

open access: yesQuantum Engineering, 2023
The growing importance of underwater networks (UNs) in mission-critical activities at sea enforces the need for secure underwater communications (UCs). Classical encryption techniques can be used to achieve secure data exchange in UNs. However, the advent of quantum computing will pose threats to classical cryptography, thus challenging UCs. Currently,

Quantum Authenticated Key Distribution

open access: yes, 2007
Quantum key distribution algorithms use a quantum communication channel with quantum information and a classical communication channel for binary information. The classical channel, in all algorithms to date, was required to be authenticated.

Zero-error attack against coherent-one-way quantum key distribution

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2021
Coherent-one-way (COW) quantum key distribution (QKD) held the promise of distributing secret keys over long distances with a simple experimental setup. Indeed, this scheme is currently used in commercial applications.
