- First implementationnn RSA (Ronald Rivest, Adi Shamir, and Leonard Adleman) 1978
- Very convenient, Internet
- Idea is based on computational complexity f(x) = y, x = ?.
- rely on unproven assumptions

VAPD is usually fixed and called bias voltage and in Geiger mode, Vbias > Vbr.
Vbias is then made smaller than Vbr to stop flow of carriers. Subsequently it is restored
to its original value in preparation for the next photon.
Linear mode
Sends her results to Bob as bright light pulses, with peak power
> Pth, instead of individual photons.
When Eve‘s and Bob‘s bases match, trigger pulse from Eve constructively interferes
and hits detector corresponding to what Eve detected.
Otherwise, no constructive interference and both detectors hit with equal energy.
This means Eve and Bob now have identical bit values
and basis choices, independently of photons emitted
by Alice.
