Security risks of VOA-induced luminescence in chip-based quantum key distribution
Researchers found that a tiny chip part, a VOA (variable optical attenuator), can glow and cause security risks in chip-based quantum key distribution. This matters because glowing parts could leak or mess up secret quantum keys.
