Twin-field (TF) quantum key distribution (QKD) promises high rates over long distances to beat the rate-distance limit. Here, applying sending-or-not-sending TF QKD protocol, we experimentally demonstrate a secure that breaks absolute key-rate limit of repeaterless 509-km-long ultralow loss optical fiber.

Quantum key distribution endows people with information-theoretical security in communications. Twin-field quantum (TF-QKD) has attracted considerable attention because of its outstanding rates over long distances. Recently, several demonstrations TF-QKD have been realized. Nevertheless, those experiments are implemented the laboratory, and therefore a critical question remains about whether is feasible real-world circumstances.

Abstract Odd-parity error rejection (OPER), in particular the method of actively odd parity pairing (AOPP), can drastically improve asymptotic key rate sending-or-not-sending twin-field (SNS-TF) quantum distribution (QKD). However, practice, finite-key effects have to be considered for security. Here, we propose a zigzag approach verify phase-flip survived bits after OPER or AOPP. Based on this, take all efficiently calculating non-asymptotic rate. Numerical simulation shows that our here...

We present a quantitative study of various limitations on quantum cryptographic systems operating with sifted-key rates over Mbit/s. The dead time silicon APDs not only limits the rate but also causes correlation between neighboring key bits. In addition to well-known count-rate dependent timing jitter in avalanche photo-diode (APD), faint laser sources, vertical cavity surface emission lasers (VCSELs) our system, induce significant amount data-dependent jitter. Both and are major limiting...

As continue increase rate, security concerns associated with detector can limit production rate sifted bits. We present a model high-speed QKD this identifies an optimum for system link loss and response characteristics.
A Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) network can allow multi-user communication via secure key. Moreover, by actively switching nodes, one achieve high key transmission rate for the selected nodes. However, polarization properties of different fiber path are and these also randomly drift over time. Therefore, recovery after auto-compensation during critical QKD network.
