A Quantum Teleportation Protocol Secured by a Blockchain Technology
Jaylin Butts, Emmanuel White, Jinsuk Baek
A quantum computer can be defined as a computer that implements high-speed calculations by actively utilizing the unique physical states of quantum mechanics. The unique physical states include superposition and quantum entanglement. Quantum computing takes advantage of these states to achieve greater computational power than traditional computing. One important application of quantum computing is quantum teleportation, which enables the transmission of a quantum bit (qubit) between communication entities using measurement-based calculations. However, since the transmission of measured data still relies on traditional communication channels, there can be a security issue, which could pose a potential obstacle to the widespread use of quantum teleportation in the future. In our paper, we propose enhancing the security of legacy quantum teleportation protocol by incorporating blockchain technology.
