Simple and efficient quantum key distribution with parametric down-conversion.
We propose an efficient quantum key distribution protocol based on the photon-pair generation from parametric down-conversion (PDC). It uses the same experimental setup as the conventional protocol, but a refined data analysis enables detection of photon-number splitting attacks by utilizing information from a built-in decoy state. Assuming the use of practical detectors, we analyze the uncondi...
متن کاملImproved practical decoy state method in quantum key distribution with parametric down conversion source
– In this paper, a new decoy-state scheme for quantum key distribution with parametric down-conversion source is proposed. We use both three-intensity decoy states and their triggered and nontriggered components to estimate the fraction of single-photon counts and quantum bit-error rate of single-photon, and then deduce a more accurate value of key generation rate. The final key rate over trans...
متن کاملQuantum Cryptography with Femtosecond Parametric down Conversion
We experimentally demonstrate a quantum cryptography system using two-photon entangled (EPR) states generated via the nonlinear process of spontaneous parametric down conversion pumped by a femtosecond laser. There are two major approaches in quantum cryptography which historically appeared almost simultaneously. One uses the quantum features of single photon states produced by signi cant atten...
متن کاملQuantum properties of backward parametric down - conversion
Backward parametric down-conversion, in which one of the twin beams is generated in the opposite direction with respect to the pump laser source (Fig.1a), was theoretically predicted fifty years ago, but only recently became experimentally accessible [1], due the challenges involved in the fabrication of the required submicrometer poling period. A peculiarity of this geometry is the presence of...
متن کاملOn Free Space Quantum Key Distribution and its Implementation with a Polarization-Entangled Parametric Down Conversion Source
This thesis describes the development of a free-space quantum key distribution system which has the ability to provide unconditionally secure communication between two parties: Alice and Bob. The system exploits the quantum mechanical property of entanglement in order to generate a key. Security is then guaranteed by the No-Cloning theorem and the laws of quantum mechanics which prevent a quant...
