Certain quantum key distribution achieved by using Bell states

Quantum Physics 2007-05-23 v3

Abstract

A new protocol for quantum key distribution based on entanglement swapping is presented. In this protocol, both certain key and random key can be generated without any loss of security. It is this property differs our protocol from the previous ones. The rate of generated key bits per particle is improved which can approach six bits (4 random bits and 2 certain bits) per four particles.
