QKD-Integrated Quantum Noise Stream Cipher: An Overview
Umesh Kumar Chandra, Avinash Kote, Neha Pathania +4
Quantum Noise Stream Cipher (QNSC) has emerged as a physical-layer encryption technique that exploits quantum noise and non-orthogonal coherent-state modulation to secure optical c…
Polarization Tracking and Active Compensation Using Classical Headers in Quantum Wrapper Networking
Gamze Gül, James van Howe, Gregory S. Kanter +6
Quantum wrapper networking (QWN) is an emerging quantum networking protocol that wraps qubits in classical header bits to enable switching/routing, monitoring, and control without…
Quantum entanglement distribution coexisting with high-rate, broadband classical optical communications over a real-world fiber connecting remote, synchronized nodes
Gina M. Talcott, Ahnnika I. Hess, Laura d'Avossa +8
Compatibility with existing classical network infrastructure offers a scalable path towards deploying large-scale quantum networks. Here, we demonstrate O-band polarization-encoded…
Optimal filtering and generation of entangled photons for quantum applications in the presence of noise
Jordan M. Thomas, Andrew R. Cameron, Akil Pathiranage +6
Filtering is commonly used in quantum optics to reject noise photons, and also to enable interference between independent photons. However, filtering the joint spectrum of photon p…
