CQT features four articles in the NJP special issue on Quantum Cryptography

New Journal of Physics, one of the highest impact factor journals for physics and quantum information, has devoted a special issue to quantum cryptography. Four out of the twenty selected articles have been authored by the CQT Quantum Optics Group. These contributions span a very wide range of topics: technological development, experimental physics, applied theory and futuristic proposals.
