Receiving Polarization-Encoded Quantum Key Distribution Signals from the QUBE-II CubeSat
Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) in space will be integral for future quantum networks. Based upon our pathfinder mission QUBE, the QUBE-II space mission is aiming to demonstrate economic global-scale QKD with an eight-unit CubeSat.
