Quantum cryptography using frequency-division transmission of optical phase

Abstract

Quantum cryptography is a recently developed technique for secure communication based on the principles of quantum mechanics. It permits two parties, who share no secret information initially, to establish between themselves a shared secret sequence of bits and then communicate over an open channel.

The principles of quantum cryptography

Stephen Mark Barnett, Simon J. D. Phoenix

Two parties can communicate in secret if they already share a sufficient quantity of secret information. The problem then is how to distribute this secret information or key. Quantum cryptography provides the potential to ensure the security of the process of key distribution and hence to guarantee the covert nature of the communication. The security of quantum key distribution relies on the principles of quantum theory and its successful implementation requires the development of quantum optical techniques.

Quantum Cryptography: A new Approach for Information Security

Debasish Hati, Souradeep Sarkar, Prasun Kr

Quantum cryptography is the art and science of exploiting quantum mechanical propertie s to perform cryptographic tasks. It is a technology that ensures ultimate security. Compared to current cryptography that could be defeated by the development of an ultra high-speed computer, quantum cryptography ensures secure communication because it is based on the fundamental physical laws. It is an emerging technology in which two parties may simultaneously generate shared, secret cryptographic key material using the transmission of quantum states of light. Quantum cryptography is a new method for sec ret communications offering the ultimate security assurance of the inviolability of a Law of Nature. The quantum cryptography relies on two important elements of quantum mechanics -the Heisenberg Uncertainty principle and the principle of photon polarization.

An Invention of Quantum Cryptography over the Classical Cryptography for Enhancing Security

Payal P. Wasankar, Pranjal Soni

Quantum Cryptography is based on the use of subatomic particles (photons) and their intrinsic quantum properties (photon polarization) to develop an unbreakable system. It is not possible to measure the quantum state of any system without affecting the system. This property provides secure transmission of key between sender and receiver. Quantum Cryptography is a way to combine the relative ease and convenience of key exchange in public key cryptography with the ultimate security of a one-time pad. Quantum techniques for key distribution, the classically impossible task of distributing secret information over an insecure channel whose transmissions are subject to inspection by an eavesdropper, between parties who share no secret key initially. Quantum Cryptography uses the principles of Quantum Mechanics to implement a cryptographic system. The key problem which is solved by using quantum techniques is that of eavesdropping detection. The bits are represented as qubits, physically modeled by photons, and communicated over a quantum channel. The polarization states of photons represent 0's and 1's.

Communication through Photon UsingQuantum Cryptography: A Survey

Leenata B. Isal, Chetan Jagannath Shelke

Quantum cryptography is an approach toward secure communication by applying the phenomena of quantum physics. As compared to the classical cryptography, quantum cryptography provides more secure communication whose security depends only on the validity of quantum theory. It is an emerging technology in which two parties may simultaneously generate shared, secret cryptographic key material using the transmission of quantum states of light. Quantum cryptography is one of the few commercial applications of quantum physics at the quantum level. The quantum relies on two important elements of quantum mechanics- the Heisenberg uncertainty principle and principle of photon polarization. This paper focuses on the principle of quantum cryptography and how this technology contributes in security of network.

Information Leakage Estimates in Quantum Cryptography

Quantum cryptography permits two parties, who share no secret information initially, to communicate over an open channel and establish between themselves a shared secret sequence of bits [1]. Quantum cryptography is provably secure against an eavesdropping attack because any attempt by a third party to monitor a quantum cryptographic channel reveals itself through transmission errors between the legitimate users.
