Quantum key distribution over distances as long as 30 km
Abstract
We report the secure transmission of cryptographic keys over as long as 30 km of optical fiber, using an interferometric quantum cryptography scheme. Low error rates in the range 1.2–4% were obtained for the quantum transmissions, and error-free secret keys were distilled from the raw data by use of secure error-correction and privacy-amplification protocols.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
