Experimental quantum key distribution based on a Bell test
arXiv:0805.3629 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.78.020301
Abstract
We report on a complete free-space field implementation of a modified Ekert91 protocol for quantum key distribution using entangled photon pairs. For each photon pair we perform a random choice between key generation and a Bell inequality. The amount of violation is used to determine the possible knowledge of an eavesdropper to ensure security of the distributed final key.
