In continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CVQKD) systems, using a local local oscillator (LLO) scheme removes the local oscillator side channel, enhances Bob's detection performance and reduces the excess noise caused by photon…
We present a generic study on the information-theoretic security of multi-setting device-independent quantum key distribution protocols, i.e., ones that involve more than two measurements (or inputs) for each party to perform, and yield…
This paper proposes a multi-mode Gaussian modulated continuous variable quantum key distribution (CV-QKD) scheme able to operate at high bandwidth despite using conventional noisy, coherent detectors. We demonstrate enhancement in shotnoise…
One of the most pressing issues in quantum key distribution (QKD) is the problem of detector side- channel attacks. To overcome this problem, researchers proposed an elegant "time-reversal" QKD protocol called measurement-device-independent…

Measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution (MDI-QKD) was originally proposed as a means to address the issue of detector side-channel attacks and enable finite secure key rates over longer distances. However, the asymmetric…

Any Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) protocol consists first of sequences of measurements that produce some correlation between classical data. We show that these correlation data must violate some Bell inequality in order to contain…
