Free-space quantum key distribution
Quantum cryptography was introduced in the mid1980s [1] as a new method for generating the shared, secret random number sequences, or cryptographic keys, that are used in crypto-systems to provide communications security. The appeal of quantum cryptography is that its security is based on laws of Nature, in contrast to existing methods of key distribution that derive their security from the per...
متن کاملFree-Space Quantum Key Distribution
Quantum key distribution is the most advanced technology to arise from the emerging field of quantum information. In fact, a few companies (MaqiQ Technologies and id Quantique) already offer commercial quantum key distribution products. But why so much excitement over QKD when our standard techniques serve just fine? Well the thing is that our standard techniques are safe only under certain ass...
متن کاملHigh-speed free-space optical continuous-variable quantum key distribution enabled by three-dimensional multiplexing.
A high-speed four-state continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CV-QKD) system, enabled by wavelength-division multiplexing, polarization multiplexing, and orbital angular momentum (OAM) multiplexing, is studied in the presence of atmospheric turbulence. The atmospheric turbulence channel is emulated by two spatial light modulators (SLMs) on which two randomly generated azimuthal phase pa...
متن کاملSingle-quadrature continuous-variable quantum key distribution
Most continuous-variable quantum key distribution schemes are based on the Gaussian modulation of coherent states followed by continuous quadrature detection using homodyne detectors. In all previous schemes, the Gaussian modulation has been carried out in conjugate quadratures thus requiring two independent modulators for their implementations. Here, we propose and experimentally test a largel...
متن کاملLong distance free-space quantum key distribution
In the age of information and globalisation, secure communication as well as the protection of sensitive data against unauthorised access are of utmost importance. Quantum cryptography currently provides the only way to exchange a cryptographic key between two parties in an unconditionally secure fashion. Owing to losses and noise of today’s optical fibre and detector technology, at present qua...
