Implementation of two-way free space quantum key distribution

Implementation of two-way free space quantum key distribution

We report an implementation of a two-way, four-state quantum key distribution (QKD) protocol (namely, the LM05 protocol) over a free space medium. A stable quantum bit error rate of 3.34% and maximum tolerable channel loss for secure key generation of 5.68 dB in the absence of a photon number splitt...
