Long-range Quantum Cryptography: Amplified Quantum Key Distribution (AQKD)

Richard J. Hughes, Jane E. Nordholt

Recently, Takeoka, Guha and Wilde have established a new (loose) upper bound on the secret key capacity of a pure-loss bosonic channel that is several times larger than an error-fr…

Practical long-distance quantum key distribution system using decoy levels

D. Rosenberg, C. G. Peterson, J. W. Harrington +9

Quantum key distribution (QKD) has the potential for widespread real-world applications. To date no secure long-distance experiment has demonstrated the truly practical operation n…

Long-distance quantum key distribution in optical fiber

P. A. Hiskett, D. Rosenberg, C. G. Peterson +5

Use of low-noise detectors can both increase the secret bit rate of long-distance quantum key distribution (QKD) and dramatically extend the length of a fibre optic link over which…

Long distance decoy state quantum key distribution in optical fiber

Danna Rosenberg, Jim W. Harrington, Patrick R. Rice +6

The theoretical existence of photon-number-splitting attacks creates a security loophole for most quantum key distribution (QKD) demonstrations that use a highly attenuated laser s…

Quantum key distribution at telecom wavelengths with noise-free detectors

Danna Rosenberg, Sae Woo Nam, Philip A. Hiskett +5

The length of a secure link over which a quantum key can be distributed depends on the efficiency and dark-count rate of the detectors used at the receiver. We report on the first…
