High-speed integrated QKD system

Rebecka Sax, Alberto Boaron, Gianluca Boso +10

Quantum key distribution (QKD) is nowadays a well established method for generating secret keys at a distance in an information-theoretic secure way, as the secrecy of QKD relies o…

The limits of multiplexing quantum and classical channels: Case study of a 2.5 GHz discrete variable quantum key distribution system

Fadri Grünenfelder, Rebecka Sax, Alberto Boaron +1

Network integration of quantum key distribution is crucial for its future widespread deployment due to the high cost of using optical fibers dedicated for the quantum channel, only…

Performance and security of 5 GHz repetition rate polarization-based Quantum Key Distribution

Fadri Grünenfelder, Alberto Boaron, Davide Rusca +2

We present and characterize a source for a 5 GHz clocked polarization-based simplified BB84 protocol. Secret keys are distributed over 151.5 km of standard telecom fiber at a rate…

Security proof for a simplified BB84-like QKD protocol

Davide Rusca, Alberto Boaron, Marcos Curty +2

The security of quantum key distribution (QKD) has been proven for different protocols, in particular for the BB84 protocol. It has been shown that this scheme is robust against ev…

Secure quantum key distribution over 421 km of optical fiber

Alberto Boaron, Gianluca Boso, Davide Rusca +10

We present a quantum key distribution system with a 2.5 GHz repetition rate using a three-state time-bin protocol combined with a one-decoy approach. Taking advantage of supercondu…
