Download or read book Multi-photon Quantum Secure Communication written by Pramode K. Verma and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-08-18 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores alternative ways of accomplishing secure information transfer with incoherent multi-photon pulses in contrast to conventional Quantum Key Distribution techniques. Most of the techniques presented in this book do not need conventional encryption. Furthermore, the book presents a technique whereby any symmetric key can be securely transferred using the polarization channel of an optical fiber for conventional data encryption. The work presented in this book has largely been practically realized, albeit in a laboratory environment, to offer proof of concept rather than building a rugged instrument that can withstand the rigors of a commercial environment.
