Order-disorder duality of high entropy alloys extends non-linear optics

Valentin A. Milichko, Ekaterina Gunina, Nikita Kulachenkov +21

Order versus disorder in the structure of materials plays a key role in the theoretical prediction of their properties. However, this structural description appears to be ineffecti…

Reference-Beam Attacks against Twin-Field Quantum Key Distribution using Optical Injection Locking

Sergio Juárez, Alessandro Marcomini, Mikhail Petrov +5

Twin-Field Quantum Key Distribution (TF-QKD) has become a leading protocol to bring quantum communications to the national scale. The protocol requires the establishment of a share…

Wide-spectrum security of quantum key distribution

Hao Tan, Mikhail Petrov, Weiyang Zhang +5

Implementations of quantum key distribution (QKD) need vulnerability assessment against loopholes in their optical scheme. Most of the optical attacks involve injecting or receivin…

Real-space superconducting properties in the atomically-thin limit: Ab initio approach and its application to Josephson junctions

Jonas Bekaert, Mikhail Petrov, Milorad V. Milošević

Real-space superconducting properties are increasingly important to characterize low-dimensional, layered, and nanostructured materials. Here, we present a method to extract the re…

Preparing a commercial quantum key distribution system for certification against implementation loopholes

Vadim Makarov, Alexey Abrikosov, Poompong Chaiwongkhot +9

A commercial quantum key distribution (QKD) system needs to be formally certified to enable its wide deployment. The certification should include the system's robustness against kn…

Independent quality assessment of a commercial quantum random number generator

Mikhail Petrov, Igor Radchenko, Damian Steiger +3

We reverse-engineer, test and analyse hardware and firmware of the commercial quantum-optical random number generator Quantis from ID Quantique. We show that > 99% of its output da…
