Backflashes in fast-gated avalanche photodiodes in quantum key distribution
A. Koehler-Sidki, J. F. Dynes, T. K. Paraïso +4
InGaAs single-photon avalanche photodiodes (APDs) are key enablers for high-bit rate quantum key distribution. However, the deviation of such detectors from ideal models can open s…
Intrinsic mitigation of the after-gate attack in quantum key distribution through fast-gated delayed detection
Alex Koehler-Sidki, James F. Dynes, Amos Martinez +5
The information theoretic security promised by quantum key distribution (QKD) holds as long as the assumptions in the theoretical model match the parameters in the physical impleme…
Intensity modulation as a preemptive measure against blinding of single-photon detectors based on self-differencing cancellation
Alexander Koehler-Sidki, Marco Lucamarini, James F. Dynes +4
Quantum key distribution is rising as an important cryptographic primitive for protecting the communication infrastructure in the digital era. However, its implementation security…
10~Mb/s quantum key distribution
Z. L. Yuan, A. Plews, R. Takahashi +12
We report the first quantum key distribution (QKD) systems capable of delivering sustainable, real-time secure keys continuously at rates exceeding 10 Mb/s. To achieve such rates,…
Long term test of a fast and compact Quantum Random Number Generator
Davide G. Marangon, Alan Plews, Marco Lucamarini +4
Random numbers are an essential resource to many applications, including cryptography and Monte Carlo simulations. Quantum random number generators (QRNGs) represent the ultimate s…
Best-practice criteria for practical security of self-differencing avalanche photodiode detectors in quantum key distribution
A. Koehler-Sidki, J. F. Dynes, M. Lucamarini +4
Fast gated avalanche photodiodes (APDs) are the most commonly used single photon detectors for high bit rate quantum key distribution (QKD). Their robustness against external attac…
