Abstract

Continuous electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR)-like correlations of bright optical beams were used to suggest a quantum cryptographic scheme. The continuous information was discretized in a novel way by associating a respective measurement, amplitude, or phase, with a bit value 1 or 0 for binary key encoding. The binary bits were encoded by the choice to detect either of two conjugate variables accomplished independently and randomly by both communicating parties. The implementation of the scheme was experimentally simple, robust and well-suited for fiber-integrated or free-space transmission.
