Time-Bin BB84 QKD System Using Indium Phosphide and Silicon Nitride Photonic Integrated Circuits
arXiv:2606.21308
Abstract
We demonstrate a dual-chip InP-SiN photonic QKD system with on-chip pulse generation and reconfigurable decoding, implementing time-bin BB84 with finite-key security against coherent attacks. The system sustains a QBER below 4% and delivers secret keys at kbps rates over 150-250 km of fiber.
