Security of practical modulator-free quantum key distribution
Álvaro Navarrete, Víctor Zapatero, Marcos Curty
Recent advancements in quantum key distribution have led to the development of various modulator-free transmitters. Among their advantages, these transmitters offer enhanced securi…
Quantum key distribution with imperfectly isolated devices
Xoel Sixto, Álvaro Navarrete, Margarida Pereira +3
Most security proofs of quantum key distribution (QKD) assume that there is no unwanted information leakage about the state preparation process. However, this assumption is impossi…
Hacking coherent-one-way quantum key distribution with present-day technology
Javier Rey-Domínguez, Álvaro Navarrete, Peter van Loock +1
Recent results have shown that the secret-key rate of coherent-one-way (COW) quantum key distribution (QKD) scales quadratically with the system's transmittance, thus rendering thi…
