High dimensional quantum key distribution (QKD) systems will allow for higher key generation rate, but with added complexity for creating and detecting high dimensional quantum states. The authors demonstrate a QKD protocol using “qubit-like” qudit states, “F-qubits”, with simpler generation and detection, maintaining the benefits of high dimensional QKD protocols.
