Quantum key distribution system clocked at 2 GHz
arXiv:quant-ph/0605076 · doi:10.1364/OPEX.13.003015
Abstract
An improved quantum key distribution test system operating at clock rates of up to 2GHz using a specially adapted commercially available silicon single photon avalanche diode is presented. The use of improved detectors has improved the fibre-based test system performance in terms of transmission distance and quantum bit error rate.
