Default Single Photon LED

[QUOTE]
The laws of quantum physics dictate that an eavesdropper could not measure the properties of a single photon without the risk of altering those properties. This means a legitimate receiver of a message can test whether it has been intercepted or altered by a hacker during transmission.
