Vulnerabilities and imperfections of single-photon detectors have been shown to
compromise security for quantum key distribution (QKD). The measurement-device …

Recently, to bridge the gap between security of Measurement-device-independent quantum
key distribution (MDI-QKD) and a high key rate, a novel protocol, the so-called detector …

Measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution (MDI-QKD) protocol was
proposed to remove all the detector side channel attacks, while its security relies on the …

In real-life implementations of quantum key distribution (QKD), the physical systems with
unwanted imperfections would be exploited by an eavesdropper. Based on imperfections in …

Current implementations of quantum key distribution (QKD) typically rely on prepare-and-
measure (P&M) schemes. Unfortunately, these implementations are not completely secure …

Measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution (MDI-QKD) is immune to all
detector side-channel attacks. However, practical implementations of MDI-QKD, which …

We present an efficient decoy-state protocol measurement-device-independent quantum
key distribution without vacuum source, with the heralded single-photon source (HSPS) and …

To date, only active-decoy-state methods have been adopted in current measurement-
device-independent (MDI) quantum key distribution (QKD) protocols, causing security …

How to remove detector side channel attacks has been a notoriously hard problem in
quantum cryptography. Here, we propose a simple solution to this problem—measurement …

We present a feasible method that can make quantum key distribution (QKD), both ultra-long-
distance and immune, to all attacks in the detection system. This method is called …
