Buying Quantum Cryptography Systems

Top-level product categories: icon applications, icon telecom

More general product categories: optical fiber communication systems and devices, optical data transmission systems

More specific product categories: quantum key distribution systems

Related product category: single-photon sources

Quantum cryptography systems provide secure data transmission over optical fibers or free space, with security based on quantum mechanics principles. They enable secure quantum key distribution, ensuring data integrity.

Making Good Purchase Decisions

As the most professional photonics purchasing portal, RP Photonics helps you to not only to find all relevant suppliers (not limited to our advertisers), but also to make good purchasing decisions.

NEW: Structured Decision Process

Purchasing involves a lot of responsibility. We recommend that you apply best practice by using the following structured process: Go through the following expandable sections, complete the form and finally come to a purchase decision. You can then print that to a PDF for documenting the process.

Our article on best practices for purchasing and another one explaining this tool give you valuable insights.

1. Understand the technical background

It is important to sufficiently understand the technology before buying.

Use the comprehensive learning resources of RP Photonics:

If you need personal help, contact RP Photonics to get technical consultancy.

2. Define your requirements

It is essential to fully understand and clearly define your requirements before you buy.

We recommend that you develop a list of clear specifications according to your specific needs, against which you can later check the suitability of found product offers:

To help you, we have already listed some aspects we recommend you consider when buying quantum cryptography systems. Of course, there may be other aspects that are relevant to your specific case.

This list is for your own preparation, and can later (possibly in modified form) be used for quotation requests to suppliers.

Otherwise, you will need to talk to your technical colleagues.

If you cannot sufficiently clarify your requirements, you may want to get technical consultancy from RP Photonics.

You find these buttons in the supplier list below or under "3. Find suitable suppliers".

3. Find suitable suppliers

We suggest three steps:

  • Below, you can find our list of suppliers for quantum cryptography systems. Use the checkboxes to mark possibly suitable suppliers.
  • The selected suppliers will appear below this list, along with your list of specifications. You can then indicate which specifications they meet according to your research. (You should finalize your specifications before doing this.)
  • Based on the results, you can finally choose a supplier that is hopefully a good enough fit.

Enabling quantum technology for demanding applications

When transferring scientific achievements into real life applications one needs an accompanying partner with expertise in fundamental research and industrial/oem capabilities. TOPTICA uniquely unifies both of these usually contradictory competences.

Coming out of the scientific quantum technology environment, TOPTICA has mastered the transition to a reliable and highly appreciated oem supplier. We still share the language, application know-how and passion with scientists but also understand and fulfill the specific requirements of industry.

TOPTICA is capable of converting scientific/research grade products into industry-grade instruments. And we are used to ramp-up production to high volumes. We can modify existing products or undertake new product developments and even higher level system integrations. So better choose the right partner right from the beginning!

quantum cryptography systems

Thorlabs manufactures a quantum optics educational kit, as well as classically analogous kits for quantum cryptography and quantum eraser demonstrations. These demonstration kits are part of a range of educational kits including atomic force microscopy (AFM), optical tweezers, and Fourier optics. Thorlabs’ correlated photon-pair sources act as high brightness sources of individual photons for non-classical applications requiring single photons.
