Using coherent quantum communication to enhance the security of intra-city cryptography.
Our quantum key distribution systems are based on coherent telecommunication technology. Quantum states are distributed with state-of-the-art rates of 10 GBaud via an optical fiber link, enabling the fastest key generation rates for metropolitan security applications.
The following table illustrates the characteristics of our research system.
| Characteristic | Value for our MetroQKD system |
|---|---|
| Symbol rate | 10 GBaud |
| Modulation Formats | BPSK, QPSK |
| Compatible with DWDM channels | Under investigation |
| Operational Wavelength | C-Band (1530 - 1570 nm) |
