Original Abstract

Single photons quantum key distribution (SP-QKD), more popularly known as optical quantum cryptography, uses a single-photon communications to distribute the secret keys required for secure communications. This paper describes a design of an optical receiver that is suitable for the SP-QKD. A receiver with an avalanche photodiode and a gated passive quenching circuit are presented.
