Optimization of Quantum Measurements for Robustness Against Dark Counts: The $D$-Trace Optimality Framework

2023 · arXiv (Cornell University)

Quantum communication, while promising unparalleled security, faces significant practical challenges due to imperfections in quantum devices, particularly in single-photon detectors (SPDs). One of the key issues is the impact of dark counts, which cause erroneous …
