Chinese scientists have developed a high-speed quantum key distribution (QKD) system to generate secret keys at a rate exceeding 110 Mb/s over a 10 km standard optical fiber, setting a new world record in the field. The findings were published Tue in the journal Nature Photonics.
High-rate quantum key distribution exceeding 110 Mb s–1 - Nature Photonics
A quantum key distribution with a key rate of 115.8 Mb s–1 is demonstrated over 10 km standard optical fibre. To this end, a high-speed and stable system, an integrated transmitter for low error modulation and multipixel superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors are developed.
