单正交连续变量量子密钥分发

Single-Quadrature Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution

Tobias Gehring, Christian S. Jacobsen, Ulrik L. Andersen

摘要:

大多数连续变量量子密钥分发方案都是基于相干态的高斯调制,然后使用零差检测器进行连续正交检测。在所有以前的方案中,高斯调制已经在共轭正交中进行,因此需要两个独立的调制器用于它们的实现。在这里,我们提出并实验测试了一个大大简化的方案,其中高斯调制是在一个单一的正交。该方案是渐近安全的集体攻击,并考虑了非对称准备和过量噪声。单正交调制方法使得不需要昂贵的幅度调制器,并且因此促进连续可变量子密钥分发的商业化。

英文摘要:

Most continuous-variable quantum key distribution schemes are based on the Gaussian modulation of coherent states followed by continuous quadrature detection using homodyne detectors. In all previous schemes, the Gaussian modulation has been carried out in conjugate quadratures thus requiring two independent modulators for their implementations. Here, we propose and experimentally test a largely simplified scheme in which the Gaussian modulation is performed in a single quadrature. The scheme is shown to be asymptotically secure against collective attacks, and considers asymmetric preparation and excess noise. A single-quadrature modulation approach renders the need for a costly amplitude modulator unnecessary, and thus facilitates commercialization of continuous-variable quantum key distribution.
