Spectral side channels of wavelength-division multiplexer in quantum key distribution under laser damage

Binwu Gao, Junxuan Liu, Ekaterina Borisova +8

In the transmitter of a quantum key distribution (QKD) system, a wavelength-division multiplexer (WDM) is typically used to combine quantum and synchronization signals and is direc…

Optical-pumping attack on a quantum key distribution laser source

Maxim Fadeev, Anastasiya Ponosova, Qingquan Peng +3

We report a new type of vulnerability in practical implementations of quantum key distribution systems. We show that it is possible to increase the pulse energy of a source laser d…

Practical security of twin-field quantum key distribution with optical phase-locked loop under wavelength-switching attack

Qingquan Peng, Jiu-Peng Chen, Tianyi Xing +4

The twin-field class quantum key distribution (TF-class QKD) has experimentally demonstrated the ability to surpass the fundamental rate-distance limit without requiring a quantum…
