Difference between Photon and Quantum cryptography

Photon vs. Quantum cryptography

The photon is a type of elementary particle, the quantum of the electromagnetic field including electromagnetic radiation such as light, and the force carrier for the electromagnetic force (even when static via virtual particles). Quantum cryptography is the science of exploiting quantum mechanical properties to perform cryptographic tasks.

Similarities between Photon and Quantum cryptography

Photon and Quantum cryptography have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): EPR paradox, Quantum computing, Quantum entanglement, Quantum mechanics, Uncertainty principle.

EPR paradox

The Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen paradox or the EPR paradox of 1935 is a thought experiment in quantum mechanics with which Albert Einstein and his colleagues Boris Podolsky and Nathan Rosen (EPR) claimed to demonstrate that the wave function does not provide a complete description of physical reality, and hence that the Copenhagen interpretation is unsatisfactory; resolutions of the paradox have important implications for the interpretation of quantum mechanics.

Quantum computing

Quantum computing is computing using quantum-mechanical phenomena, such as superposition and entanglement.

Quantum entanglement

Quantum entanglement is a physical phenomenon which occurs when pairs or groups of particles are generated, interact, or share spatial proximity in ways such that the quantum state of each particle cannot be described independently of the state of the other(s), even when the particles are separated by a large distance—instead, a quantum state must be described for the system as a whole.

Quantum mechanics

Quantum mechanics (QM; also known as quantum physics, quantum theory, the wave mechanical model, or matrix mechanics), including quantum field theory, is a fundamental theory in physics which describes nature at the smallest scales of energy levels of atoms and subatomic particles.

Uncertainty principle

In quantum mechanics, the uncertainty principle (also known as Heisenberg's uncertainty principle) is any of a variety of mathematical inequalities asserting a fundamental limit to the precision with which certain pairs of physical properties of a particle, known as complementary variables, such as position x and momentum p, can be known.

Photon and Quantum cryptography Comparison

Photon has 336 relations, while Quantum cryptography has 59. As they have in common 5, the Jaccard index is 1.27% = 5 / (336 + 59).
