Trusted noise in continuous-variable quantum key distribution
We address the role of the phase-insensitive trusted preparation and detection noise in the security of a continuous-variable quantum key distribution, considering the Gaussian protocols on the basis of coherent and squeezed states and studying them in the conditions of Gaussian lossy and noisy channels. The influence of such a noise on the security of Gaussian quantum cryptography can be cruci...
متن کاملAdaptive Quadrature Detection for Multicarrier Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution
We propose the adaptive quadrature detection for multicarrier continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CVQKD). A multicarrier CVQKD scheme uses Gaussian subcarrier continuous variables for the information conveying and Gaussian sub-channels for the transmission. The proposed multicarrier detection scheme dynamically adapts to the subchannel conditions using a corresponding statistics which...
متن کاملA wideband balanced homodyne detector for high speed continuous variable quantum key distribution systems
In Gauissian-modulated coherent-state quantum key distribution, the measurement of quadratures of coherent states is performed by using homodyne detector. However, the existing detectors usually suffer from narrow band. Here we present a method to design a high-speed shot-noise-limited balanced homodyne detector. A 300 MHz bandwidth detector was experimentally tested and the level of shot noise...
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 کاملContinuous Variable Quantum Key Distribution with a Noisy Laser
Existing experimental implementations of continuous-variable quantum key distribution require shot-noise limited operation, achieved with shot-noise limited lasers. However, loosening this requirement on the laser source would allow for cheaper, potentially integrated systems. Here, we implement a theoretically proposed prepare-and-measure continuous-variable protocol and experimentally demonst...
