Physicist from Hannover develops new photon source for tap-proof communication

A team of researchers has developed a new method for generating quantum-entangled photons in the previously inaccessible spectral range of 2.1 micrometers. This breakthrough can enhance the security of satellite-based communications by making end-to-end encryption possible on sunny and cloudy days.
