Realizing quantum nodes in space for cost-effective, global quantum communication: in-orbit results and next steps
Chithrabhanu Perumangatt, Tom Vergoossen, Alexander Lohrmann +6
Quantum sources and receivers operating on-board satellites are an essential building block for global quantumnetworks. SpooQy-1 is a satellite developed at the Centre for Quantum…
Thermo-mechanical design for a miniaturized quantum light source on board the SpooQy-1 CubeSat
Huai Ying Lim, Tom Vergoossen, Robert Bedington +8
This paper presents the thermo-mechanical design of the quantum light source on board SpooQy-1, a 3U CubeSat that was deployed from the International Space Station on 17th June 201…
Entanglement demonstration on board a nano-satellite
Aitor Villar, Alexander Lohrmann, Xueliang Bai +14
Global quantum networks for secure communication can be realised using large fleets of satellites distributing entangled photon-pairs between ground-based nodes. Because the cost o…
An updated analysis of satellite quantum-key distribution missions
Olivia Lee, Tom Vergoossen
Quantum key distribution (QKD) is a cryptographic method enabling two parties to establish a private encryption key. The range of communication of ground-based QKD is limited to an…
Satellite quantum communications when man-in-the-middle attacks are excluded
Tom Vergoossen, Robert Bedington, James A Grieve +1
An application of quantum communications is the transmission of qubits to create shared symmetric encryption keys in a process called Quantum Key Distribution (QKD). Contrary to pu…
Satellite constellations for trusted node QKD networks
Tom Vergoossen, Sergio Loarte, Robert Bedington +2
Quantum key distribution from satellites becomes particularly valuable when it can be used on a large network and on-demand to provide a symmetric encryption key to any two nodes.…
