Los Alamos Successfully Employs Quantum Key Distribution
William Eazel writes on SC Magazine Online:
A team of Los Alamos scientists, in collaboration with researchers from the National Institute of Standards and Technology in Boulder, Colo., and Albion College, in Albion, Mich., have achieved quantum key distribution (QKD) at telecommunications industry wavelengths in a 50-kilometer (31 mile) optical fiber.More here.
According to the researchers, the work could accelerate the development of QKD for secure communications in optical fibers at distances far beyond current technological limits.
