Secure quantum key distribution with an uncharacterized source.
We prove the security of the Bennett-Brassard (BB84) quantum key distribution protocol for an arbitrary source whose averaged states are basis independent, a condition that is automatically satisfied if the source is suitably designed. The proof is based on the observation that, to an adversary, the key extraction process is equivalent to a measurement in the sigma(x) basis performed on a pure ...
متن کاملOptically injected quantum-dot lasers.
The response of an optically injected quantum-dot semiconductor laser (SL) is studied both experimentally and theoretically. In particular, the nature of the locking boundaries is investigated, revealing features more commonly associated with Class A lasers rather than conventional Class B SLs. Experimentally, two features stand out; the first is an absence of instabilities resulting from relax...
متن کاملUnconditionally Secure Multipartite Quantum Key Distribution
We consider the problem of secure key distribution among n trustful agents: the goal is to distribute an identical random bit-string among the n agents over a noisy channel such that eavesdroppers learn little about it. We study the general situation where the only resources required are secure bipartite key distribution and authenticated classical communication. Accordingly, multipartite quant...
متن کاملSecure quantum key distribution using squeezed states
We prove the security of a quantum key distribution scheme based on transmission of squeezed quantum states of a harmonic oscillator. Our proof employs quantum error-correcting codes that encode a finitedimensional quantum system in the infinite-dimensional Hilbert space of an oscillator, and protect against errors that shift the canonical variables p and q. If the noise in the quantum channel ...
متن کاملProvably Secure Quantum Key Distribution By Applying Quantum Gate
The need for Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) is strengthening due to its inalienable principles of quantum mechanics. QKD commences when sender transforms bits into qubits or quantum states by applying photon polarization and sends to the receiver. The qubits are altered when measured in incorrect polarization and cannot be reproduced according to quantum mechanics principles. BB84 protocol is t...
