Single photon quantum cryptography.
We report the full implementation of a quantum cryptography protocol using a stream of single photon pulses generated by a stable and efficient source operating at room temperature. The single photon pulses are emitted on demand by a single nitrogen-vacancy color center in a diamond nanocrystal. The quantum bit error rate is less that 4.6% and the secure bit rate is 7700 bits/s. The overall per...
متن کاملOne-way entangled-photon autocompensating quantum cryptography
A quantum cryptography implementation is presented that uses entanglement to combine one-way operation with an autocompensating feature that has hitherto only been available in implementations that require the signal to make a round trip between the users. Using the concept of advanced waves, it is shown that this proposed implementation is related to the round-trip implementation in the same w...
متن کاملQuantum Technology : Single - Photon Source
This report is a synthesis of my master thesis internship at the National Institute of Informatics in Tokyo that last during the summer of year 2012. I worked in the Quantum Information Science Theory (QIST) group under supervision of Prof. Kae Nemoto and Dr. Simon Devitt. The group works on theoretical and experimental implementations of quantum information science. The aim of my project was t...
متن کاملOn the Optimal Mean Photon Number for Quantum Cryptography
The optimal mean photon number (μ) for quantum cryptography is the average photon number per transmitted pulse that results in the highest delivery rate of distilled cryptographic key bits, given a specific system scenario and set of assumptions about Eve’s capabilities. Although many experimental systems have employed a mean photon number (μ) of 0.1 in practice, several research teams have poi...
متن کاملSingle-photon generation with InAs quantum dots
Single-photon generation using InAs quantum dots in pillar microcavities is described. The effects on performance of the excitation wavelength and polarization, and the collection bandwidth and polarization, are studied in detail. The efficiency and photon state purity of these devices have been measured, and issues affecting these parameters are discussed. Prospects for improved devices are al...
