However, the performance of decoy-state RFI QKD with both source errors and statistical fluctuations is still missing until now. In this paper, we investigate the performance of decoy-state RFI QKD in practical scenarios with two kinds of light sources, the heralded single photon source （HSPS） and the weak coherent source （WCS）, and also give clear comparison results of decoy-state RFI QKD with WCS and HSPS. Simulation results show that the secret key rates of decoy-state RFI QKD with WCS are higher than those with HSPS in short distance range, but the secret key rates of RFI QKD with HSPS outperform those with WCS in long distance range.展开更多

The circuit can be employed in the range of 1. 8 - 8 V and carry out the first-order PTAT ( proportional to absolute temperature) temperature compensation. Through using a two-stage op-amp with a NMOS input pair as a negative feedback op-amp,the PSRR ( power supply rejection ratio) of the entire circuit is increased,and the temperature coefficient of reference voltage is decreased. Results from HSPICE simulation show that the PSRR is - 72. 76 dB in the condition of low-frequency,the temperature coefficient is 2. 4 × 10 -6 in the temperature range from - 10 ℃ to 90 ℃ and the power dissipation is only 14 μW when the supply voltage is 1. 8 V.展开更多
