Long-distance quantum key distribution secure against coherent attacks
Bernd Fröhlich, Marco Lucamarini, James F. Dynes +6
Quantum key distribution (QKD) permits information-theoretically secure transmission of digital encryption keys, assuming that the behaviour of the devices employed for the key exc…
Security bounds for efficient decoy-state quantum key distribution
Marco Lucamarini, James F. Dynes, Bernd Fröhlich +2
Information-theoretical security of quantum key distribution (QKD) has been convincingly proven in recent years and remarkable experiments have shown the potential of QKD for real…
Interference of short optical pulses from independent gain-switched laser diodes for quantum secure communications
Z. L. Yuan, M. Lucamarini, J. F. Dynes +3
Since the introduction of the decoy-state technique, phase-randomised weak coherent light pulses have been the key to increase the practicality of quantum-based communications. The…
GHz-gated InGaAs/InP single-photon detector with detection efficiency exceeding 55% at 1550 nm
Lucian C. Comandar, Bernd Fröhlich, James F. Dynes +5
We report on a gated single-photon detector based on InGaAs/InP avalanche photodiodes (APDs) with a single-photon detection efficiency exceeding 55% at 1550 nm. Our detector is gat…
Robust random number generation using steady-state emission of gain-switched laser diodes
Z. L. Yuan, M. Lucamarini, J. F. Dynes +3
We demonstrate robust, high-speed random number generation using interference of the steady-state emission of guaranteed random phases, obtained through gain-switching a semiconduc…
Room temperature single-photon detectors for high bit rate quantum key distribution
L. C. Comandar, B. Fröhlich, M. Lucamarini +6
We report room temperature operation of telecom wavelength single-photon detectors for high bit rate quantum key distribution (QKD). Room temperature operation is achieved using In…
