Mitiq: A software package for error mitigation on noisy quantum computers

Ryan LaRose, Andrea Mari, Sarah Kaiser +16

We introduce Mitiq, a Python package for error mitigation on noisy quantum computers. Error mitigation techniques can reduce the impact of noise on near-term quantum computers with…

Airborne demonstration of a quantum key distribution receiver payload

Christopher J. Pugh, Sarah Kaiser, Jean-Philippe Bourgoin +8

Satellite-based quantum terminals are a feasible way to extend the reach of quantum communication protocols such as quantum key distribution (QKD) to the global scale. To that end,…

Creation of backdoors in quantum communications via laser damage

Vadim Makarov, Jean-Philippe Bourgoin, Poompong Chaiwongkhot +7

Practical quantum communication (QC) protocols are assumed to be secure provided implemented devices are properly characterized and all known side channels are closed. We show that…

Free-space quantum key distribution to a moving receiver

Jean-Philippe Bourgoin, Brendon L. Higgins, Nick Gigov +5

Technological realities limit terrestrial quantum key distribution (QKD) to single-link distances of a few hundred kilometers. One promising avenue for global-scale quantum communi…

Attacks exploiting deviation of mean photon number in quantum key distribution and coin tossing

Shihan Sajeed, Igor Radchenko, Sarah Kaiser +5

The security of quantum communication using a weak coherent source requires an accurate knowledge of the source's mean photon number. Finite calibration precision or an active mani…

Experimental quantum key distribution with source flaws

Feihu Xu, Kejin Wei, Shihan Sajeed +6

Decoy-state quantum key distribution (QKD) is a standard technique in current quantum cryptographic implementations. Unfortunately, existing experiments have two important drawback…
