Breaking the optical barrier: Terahertz tech could help enable quantum internet security

A new method to distribute cryptographic keys using terahertz waves could help enable secure communication in the quantum-powered internet of the future, researchers say. Engineers from the University of Glasgow are pioneering the development of a new method of quantum key distribution (QKD) using terahertz waves transmitted with a wireless communications system adapted from mobile and WiFi networks.
