The paper aims to examine the mechanisms of quantum cryptography and review the
relationship between quantum and classical encryption schemes. A brief introduction of …

A key aspect of consciousness is that it represents bound or integrated information,
prompting an increasing conviction that the physical substrate of consciousness must be …

It is known that the superposition of two bound states in the continuum (BICs) leads to the
phenomenon of an oscillating bound state, where excitations mediated by the continuum …

Engineering, controlling, and simulating quantum dynamics is a strenuous task. However,
these techniques are crucial to develop quantum technologies, preserve quantum …

Uncertainty relations involving incompatible observables are one of the cornerstones of
quantum mechanics. Aside from their fundamental significance, they play an important role …

Quantum communication aims to provide absolutely secure transmission of secret
information. State-of-the-art methods encode symbols into single photons or coherent light …

Microchannel plates (MCP) are the basis for many spatially resolved single-particle
detectors such as ICCD or I-sCMOS cameras employing image intensifiers (II), MCPs with …

Most quantum key distribution protocols using a two-dimensional basis, such as HV
polarization as first proposed by Bennett and Brassard in 1984, are limited to a key …

This paper discusses the physics, engineering and mission architecture relating to a gram-
