摘要: 考虑到当光子传输速率过高时, 量子密钥分配协议在实际应用中会受到探测器死时间的影响, 因此对基 于标记单光子源协议的安全密钥生成速率和探测器死时间之间的关系进行了探究。首先, 在考虑和不考虑探测 器死时间这两种情况下, 探究了安全密钥生成速率和探测器死时间之间的关系。结果表明: 当光子传输速率过 高时, 探测器死时间的存在的确会影响安全密钥生成速率。进一步分析了不同探测器死时间下安全密钥速率的 生成情况。结果表明: 探测器死时间的取值越大, 得到的安全密钥生成速率就越低, 安全密钥生成速率的极限值 和探测器死时间 τ 之间的关系为 4.2/τ。

Abstract: Considering that the quantum key distribution protocol may be affected by the detector dead time in practical applications when the photon transmission rate is too high, the relationship between the security key generation rate based on the heralded single photon source protocol and the detector dead time is explored. First, the relationship between the security key generation rate and the detector dead time is explored with or without considering the detector dead time. The results show that when the photon transmission rate is too high, the dead time of the detector will indeed affect the generation rate of security key. Then the security key generation rate is further analyzed under different detector dead time. The results show that for the same light source, the greater the detector dead time is, the smaller the security key generation rate is, and the relation between the limit value of the security key generation rate and the detector dead time τ is 4.2/τ.
