Abstract

Quantum information and quantum foundations are becoming popular topics for advanced undergraduate courses. Many of the fundamental concepts and applications in these two fields, such as delayed choice experiments and quantum encryption, are comprehensible to undergraduates with basic knowledge of quantum mechanics. In this paper, we show that the quantum eraser, usually used to study the duality between wave and particle properties, can also serve as a generic platform for quantum key distribution. We present a pedagogical example of an algorithm to securely share random keys using the quantum eraser platform and propose its implementation with quantum circuits.

基于量子橡皮擦的量子密钥分发
量子信息和量子基础正在成为本科生高级课程的热门话题。这两个领域的许多基本概念和应用,如延迟选择实验和量子加密,对于具有量子力学基础知识的本科生来说都是可以理解的。在本文中,我们展示了通常用于研究波与粒子特性二元性的量子橡皮擦也可以作为量子密钥分发的通用平台。我们举例说明了利用量子橡皮擦平台安全共享随机密钥的算法,并提出了用量子电路实现该算法的建议。
