Metropolitan Quantum Key Distribution with Silicon Photonics

Metropolitan Quantum Key Distribution with Silicon Photonics

Photonic integrated circuits provide a compact and stable platform for quantum photonics. Here we demonstrate a silicon photonics quantum key distribution (QKD) encoder in the first high-speed polarization-based QKD field tests. The systems reach composable secret key rates of 1.039 Mbps in a local...
