Abstract

My name is Sarah Layani, and during my 5-month research internship, I focused on various aspects of the Continuous Variable Quantum Key Distribution (CV-QKD) setup. Additionally, I collaborated with another intern, Salomé Perrin, on developing a BB84 demonstrator, a prominent scheme in Discrete Variable Quantum Key Distribution (DV-QKD). This demonstrator will be presented at the next Fête de la Science.

Furthermore, I conducted polarization experiments on the Parisian quantum network testbed to assess the stability of polarization over long time scales. These experiments are crucial for addressing the practical challenges of real-world quantum key distribution setups.
