Abstract

The paper introduces a quantum key distribution (QKD) scheme which generates 6-bits per each transmitted photon. The efficiency of our protocol is 100% like quantum dense key distribution but with 6 bits per photon instead of 4-bits per photon. The proposed protocol improves the efficiency of BB84 and the biased BB84 which use 1-bit per photon.
