Quantum Cryptography Protocols
Explain the mechanics of BB84 and its resistance to interception.
📝 Contenu du Prompt
Explain the BB84 quantum key distribution protocol in detail. Your explanation should cover the concept of quantum bases (rectilinear vs. diagonal), the process of qubit transmission, sifting, and error checking. Crucially, explain precisely how the No-Cloning Theorem prevents an eavesdropper (Eve) from intercepting the key without introducing errors that Alice and Bob can detect. Use technical terminology appropriate for a graduate-level physics student.
