The application of the principles of quantum mechanics to cryptography has led to a respectable new dimension in confidential communication. As a result of these developments, it i...
Abstract. Performance of various experimental realizations of quantum cryptographic protocols using polarization or phase coding are compared, including a new self-balanced interfe...

Quantum Cryptography or Quantum key distribution (QKD) is a technique that allows the secure distribution of a bit string, used as key in cryptographic protocols. When it was note...
It has been said that quantum cryptography in general o ers a secure solution to the problem of key enhancement. This means that two parties who already share a small secret key, ...
This letter proposes a novel key distribution protocol with no key exchange in advance, which is secure as the BB84 quantum key distribution protocol. Our protocol utilizes a phot...
