Converting data to electrical/optical signals (bits: 0s and 1s)
Copying and amplifying signals at each router
Using mathematical encryption (like RSA) for security Alice has qubit |ψ⟩ to send
Alice performs Bell measurement on |ψ⟩ and her entangled photon
Alice sends 2 classical bits to Bob
Bob applies correction → receives |ψ⟩ perfectly!
NV-Centers: Diamond defects that store quantum states
Entanglement Swapping: Connect distant nodes via intermediate Bell measurements Alice sends photons in random polarization bases
Bob measures in random bases
They compare bases publicly
Matching bases → shared secret key
Any eavesdropping → detectable errors Now (2024-2025): Point-to-point QKD, Education
Near-term (2026-2028): Metropolitan quantum networks
Medium-term (2029-2032): Quantum repeater deployment
Long-term (2033+): Global quantum internet

The Vision of Quantum Internet
The LUXBIN Quantum Internet
The LUXBIN Internet is a next-generation network that transmits quantum information using entangled photons, enabling fundamentally new capabilities impossible with classical networks.
How Classical Internet Works (and Its Limits)
Your current internet works by:
The Problem: Quantum computers will break current encryption. A sufficiently powerful quantum computer could factor the large numbers that secure your bank transactions.
How LUXBIN Internet Works
Instead of classical bits, LUXBIN transmits quantum states of light:
Step 1: Entanglement Distribution
LUXBIN nodes continuously generate and share entangled photon pairs:
Alice's Node ←──[Entangled Photons]──→ Bob's Node
|Φ+⟩ = (|00⟩ + |11⟩)/√2
Step 2: Quantum Teleportation
To send quantum information, we use pre-shared entanglement:The quantum state is DESTROYED at Alice and RECREATED at Bob. No copying occurred!
Step 3: Quantum Repeaters
For long distances, LUXBIN uses quantum repeaters based on:Why It's Unhackable
The Eavesdropping Problem
If Eve tries to intercept:
Alice ──[Photon]──> Eve ──[Photon]──> Bob
↓
Eve measures
(disturbs state!)
Quantum mechanics GUARANTEES that measurement disturbs the state. Alice and Bob can detect Eve's presence!
