University Of Ottawa Team Pioneers New Approach To Secure Free-Space Quantum Key Distribution

Researchers at the University of Ottawa have pioneered a new approach to secure free-space quantum key distribution, addressing the challenge of atmospheric turbulence. Utilizing a nonlinear optical process called stimulated parametric down-conversion, their technique dynamically corrects distortions and reduces quantum error rates, potentially leading to simpler, lower-cost quantum communication systems.
