Abstract: We present a method to control the detection events in quantum key distribution systems that use gated single-photon detectors. We employ bright pulses as faked states, timed to arrive at the avalanche photodiodes outside the activation time. The attack can remain unnoticed, since the faked states do not increase the error rate per se. This allows for an intercept-resend attack, where an eavesdropper transfers her detection events to the legitimate receiver without causing any errors. As a side effect, afterpulses, originating from accumulated charge carriers in the detectors, increase the error rate. We have experimentally tested detectors of the system id3110 (Clavis2) from ID Quantique. We identify the parameter regime in which the attack is feasible despite the side effect. Furthermore, we outline how simple modifications in the implementation can make the device immune to this attack.

Abstract: Новое направление физики – квантовая информация – возникло на стыке квантовой механики, оптики, теории относительности и программирования, дискретной математики, лазерной физики и спектроскопии и включает в себя вопросы квантовых вычислений, квантовых компьютеров, квантовой телепортации и квантовой криптографии, проблемы декогеренции и спектроскопии одиночных молекул и примесных центров. Сообщается о некоторых новых результатах в этой быстро развивающейся области исследований.

Abstract: A quantum cryptographic protocol based in public key cryptography combinations and private key cryptography is presented. Unlike the BB84 protocol 1 and its many variants 2,3 two quantum channels are used. The present research does not make reconciliation mechanisms of information to derive the key. A three related system of key distribution are described.
