  • Abstract
    Recent progress in quantum key distribution (QKD), regarding high-speed and long-distance experiments and field trials are briefly reviewed. We also introduce our research on the randomness of quantum key. We have confirmed a quantum key, as a crypto key, assures the required randomness with some dynamic compensation.
