Boyer, D. Kenigsberg, and T. Mor, Phys. Rev. Lett. 99, 140501 (2007)], by using four quantum states, each of which is randomly prepared by Z basis or X basis. Here we present a semiquantum key distribution protocol by using entangled states in which quantum Alice shares a secret key with classical Bob. We also show the protocol is secure against eavesdropping.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2011-04-07T08:20:32.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "entangled states", "distribution protocol", "quantum alice shares", "novel semiquantum", "quantum states" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1088/0256-307X/28/10/100301", "journal": "Chinese Physics Letters", "year": 2011, "month": "Oct", "volume": 28, "number": 10, "pages": 100301 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 6, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011ChPhL..28j0301W" } } }
