Quantum Correlations for Secret Key Distribution

Quantum mechanics allows secure communication against eavesdropping. The security relies on fundamental laws of physics and, therefore, it cannot be broken by any advance in computational power of potential adversaries. The reason for this is that any att empt to eavesdrop on the signals will hav...
