Toshiba Develops Single Photon Emitting LED for Quantum Security

Researchers at Toshiba have developed an LED (light emitting diode) capable of firing a single photon at a time, which could make sending encrypted messages truly secure. Researchers believe the diode could be used for quantum cryptography, a secure form of optical communication. Quantum cryptography is far safer than normal encryption as its security is based on fundamental laws of quantum physics. Current systems of quantum cryptography are not fail-safe because they emit more than one photon (particles of light) at a time, essentially allowing a hacker to break certain parts of a code without being detected. "Single photons are rather like magic bullets of molecular biology, in that the laws of quantum mechanics result in the certain failure of any attempt to intercept the information," said Toshiba Research's professor Michael Pepper.

Cambridge Breakthrough in Semiconductor Technology for Quantum Cryptography

British boffins have made a breakthrough in quantum cryptography, an advanced code-making technology which is theoretically uncrackable, by developing a single photon-emitting diode. The researchers from the University of Cambridge and Toshiba have discovered a way of incorporating semiconductor nano-technology into an LED so they can trigger the emission of single photons at regulated times. This is important because the security of optical quantum cryptography relies on sending a single photon carrying digital information between two parties exchanging encoded information. .

Boffins at UCSB (University of California, Santa Barbara) have made a breakthrough in quantum cryptography, and put together a gadget that is capable of emitting a single photon. The device is being heralded as an important step towards secure quantum communications since it will render any signal invulnerable to snooping. According to LaboratoryNetwork, at the moment quantum communications depends on two photon systems. These can be encrypted, but eavesdroppers can't be detected.
