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…
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…
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…
Mic-hackathon 2024: Hackathon on Machine Learning for Electron and Scanning Probe Microscopy
Utkarsh Pratiush, Austin Houston, Kamyar Barakati +70
Microscopy is a primary source of information on materials structure and functionality at nanometer and atomic scales. The data generated is often well-structured, enriched with me…
Real-space superconducting properties in the atomically-thin limit: Ab initio approach and its application to Josephson junctions
Jonas Bekaert, Mikhail Petrov, Milorad V. MiloÅ¡eviÄ
Real-space superconducting properties are increasingly important to characterize low-dimensional, layered, and nanostructured materials. Here, we present a method to extract the re…
