Experimental Quantum Key Distribution: Status and Directions
Speaker:
Gregor Weihs, University of Waterloo
Date and Time:
Tuesday, October 3, 2006 - 4:10pm to 5:10pm
Location:
Fields Institute, Room 230
Abstract:
I will review the progress in experimental implementations, highlight the various firsts and finally present the status quo. I will talk about our own effort in entangled free-space quantum key distribution and discuss the various obstacles in achieving practical security and high key creation rates.
