ISBN: 9798907639898 - the unclonable photon: the physics and engineering of quantum communication, from single photons to the quantum internet (7 risultati)

Condizione: New.

Gebundene Ausgabe. Condizione: Neu. Every classical signal can be copied. A single photon cannot. That one law of nature, the no-cloning theorem, is the foundation of a new kind of security, and The Unclonable Photon shows, equation by equation and device by device, how engineers turn it into working quantum networks.The book begins with a simple question: what must a secret key be? From there it builds the quantum toolkit step by step, from density operators, channels and measurements to the no-cloning theorem and Bell's inequality, and proves the existence of the photon itself with the Hanbury Brown-Twiss experiment. It then descends into real hardware: lasers and their rate equations, modulators, optical fibres, phonons and Raman noise, single-photon detectors, and how to read and verify their datasheets.Every major protocol is derived in detail, from BB84, six-state and SARG04 to DPS, COW, MDI, twin-field, continuous-variable and device-independent QKD, with realistic finite-key numbers rather than brochure figures. Repeaters, satellites, trusted-node networks and hybrid post-quantum systems complete the picture.With more than 170 worked problems, ten design case studies and seven laboratory exercises, this is a book for engineers, physicists and security architects who want to understand not only why quantum communication is secure, but what it really takes to build.
