We describe a new method for quantum key distribution that utilizes phase modulation of sidebands of modulation by use of integrated electro-optic modulators at the transmitting and receiving modules. The system is shown to produce constructive or destructive interference with unity visibility, which should allow quantum cryptography to be carried out with high flexibility by use of conventional devices.

We report a new transmission that can be used for quantum key distribution. The system uses single-sideband-modulated light in an implementation of the BB84 quantum cryptography protocol. The system is formed by two integrated unbalanced Mach-Zehnder interferometers and is based on interference between phase-modulated sidebands in the spectral domain. Experiments show that high interference visibility can be obtained.

Summary form only given. We propose a new approach, based on a single side band (SSB) detection scheme, that allows the BB84 protocol to be used in a robust scheme for quantum cryptography and eliminates both polarization and path-delay maintenance problems. An unbalanced integrated Mach Zehnder modulator modulates the intensity of the reference beam.
