Practical Quantum Key Distribution That is Secure Against Side Channels

Practical Quantum Key Distribution That is Secure Against Side Channels

There is a large gap between theory and practice in quantum key distribution (QKD) because real devices do not satisfy the assumptions required by the security proofs. Here, we close this gap by introducing a simple and practical measurement-device-independent-QKD type of protocol, based on the transmission of coherent light, for …
