The early days of experimental quantum cryptography
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper describes the first quantum cryptography experiment, performed at the IBM Thomas J. Watson Research Center in the summer of 1989 by Charles H. Bennett and the author. The apparatus and some of the lesser-known details of the experiment are illustrated and discussed, and quantum cryptography is discussed in the light of some of the more recent research. Also included as an appendix is a short essay about Bennett written by Rolf Landauer.

Design of low power random number generators for quantum-dot cellular automata
Quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA) are a promising nanotechnology to implement digital circuits at the nanoscale. Devices based on QCA have the advantages of faster speed, lower power consumption, and greatly reduced sizes. In this paper, we are presented the circuits, which generate random numbers in QCA. Random numbers have many uses in science, art, statistics, cryptography, gaming, gambli...

متن کاملQuantum Cryptography
Quantum Cryptography was born in the early seventies when Stephen Wiesner wrote “Conjugate Coding”, which unfortunately took more than ten years to see the light of print [50]. In the mean time, Charles H. Bennett (who knew of Wiesner’s idea) and Gilles Brassard picked up the subject and brought it to fruition in a series of papers that culminated with the demonstration of an experimental proto...
متن کاملThe Impact of the Spectral Filter Bandwidth on the Spectral Entanglement and Indistinguishability of Photon Pairs of SPDC Process
In this paper, we have investigated the dependence of the spectral entanglement and indistinguishability of photon pairs produced by the spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) procedure on the bandwidth of spectral filters used in the detection setup. The SPDC is a three-wave mixing process which occurs in a nonlinear crystal and generates entangled photon pairs and utilizes as one of th...
متن کاملTuning the Luminescence of CdS Quantum Dots by a Simple Method
In this report, we present a facile approach for the synthesis of luminescent CdS and CdS:Mn+2 nanocrystals by reaction of CdSO4 and Na2S2O3 in the presence of thioglycerol (C3H8O2S) as capping agent. The influence of various experimental variables including, pH values and percentage of dopant, on the growth...
