Journal ArticleDOI
Side-channel-free quantum key distribution.
TL;DR: All real channels are replaced with virtual channels in a QKD protocol, making the relevant detectors and settings inside private spaces inaccessible while simultaneously acting as a Hilbert space filter to eliminate side-channel attacks.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantum Illumination with Gaussian States
Si-Hui Tan,Baris I. Erkmen,Vittorio Giovannetti,Saikat Guha,Seth Lloyd,Lorenzo Maccone,Stefano Pirandola,Jeffrey H. Shapiro +7 more
TL;DR: By making the optimum joint measurement on the light received from the target region together with the retained spontaneous parametric down-conversion idler beam, the quantum-illumination system realizes a 6 dB advantage in the error-probability exponent over the optimum reception coherent-state system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Better late than never: information retrieval from black holes.
TL;DR: It is shown that, in order to preserve the equivalence principle until late times in unitarily evaporating black holes, the thermodynamic entropy of a black hole must be primarily entropy of entanglement across the event horizon.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-rate measurement-device-independent quantum cryptography
Stefano Pirandola,Carlo Ottaviani,Gaetana Spedalieri,Christian Weedbrook,Samuel L. Braunstein,Seth Lloyd,Tobias Gehring,Christian S. Jacobsen,Ulrik L. Andersen +8 more
TL;DR: A coherent-state network protocol able to achieve remarkably high key rates at metropolitan distances, in fact three orders of magnitude higher than those currently achieved, is designed and proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microwave Quantum Illumination
Shabir Barzanjeh,Saikat Guha,Christian Weedbrook,David Vitali,Jeffrey H. Shapiro,Stefano Pirandola +5 more
TL;DR: The error probability of this microwave quantum-illumination system, or quantum radar, is shown to be superior to that of any classical microwave radar of equal transmitted energy.
