From Intra-Datacenter Interconnects to Metro Networks: Does CV-QKD Need Loss- or Bandwidth-Conscious Receivers?

Florian Honz, Fabian Laudenbach, Hannes Hübel +2

We experimentally compare a loss-optimized coherent heterodyne and a bandwidth-blessed intradyne CV-QKD architecture. We find the former to prevail performance-wise for medium/long…

Flexible Entanglement Distribution Overlay for Cloud/Edge DC Interconnect as Seed for IT-Secure Primitives

Fabian Laudenbach, Bernhard Schrenk, Martin Achleitner +3

We leverage spectral assets of entanglement and spatial switching to realize a flexible distribution map for cloud-to-edge and edge-to-edge quantum pipes that seed IT-secure primit…

Spectrally-Shaped Continuous-Variable QKD Operating at 500 MHz Over an Optical Pipe Lit by 11 DWDM Channels

D. Milovančev, N. Vokić, F. Laudenbach +3

We demonstrate high-rate CV-QKD supporting a secure-key rate of 22Mb/s through spectral tailoring and optimal use of quantum receiver bandwidth. Co-existence with 11 adjacent carri…

Analysis of the trusted-device scenario in continuous-variable quantum key distribution

Fabian Laudenbach, Christoph Pacher

The assumption that detection and/or state-preparation devices used for continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CV-QKD) are beyond influence of potential eavesdroppers leads…
