Security Evaluation of Quantum Distance-Bounding Protocols Via Semidefinite Programming

Quantum distance-bounding QDB protocols let a verifier check that a prover is both genuine and physically nearby. During a timed fast phase of quantum communication, the verifier measures round-trip times to obtain an upper bound on the prover's distance. For a uniform comparison, we isolate the...

On-Chip Semi-Device-Independent Quantum Random Number Generator Exploiting Contextuality

We present a semi-device-independent quantum random number generator QRNG based on the violation of a contextuality inequality, implemented by the integration of two silicon photonic chips. Our system combines a heralded single-photon source with a reconfigurable interferometric mesh to implement...
