← ScienceWhich risk increases when entangled photons pass fiber?
A)Decoherence corrupts quantum key exchange✓
B)Chromatic dispersion alters pulse width
C) stimulated emission amplifies signal
D)Four wave mixing generates sidebands
💡 Explanation
Quantum key distribution (QKD) relies on entangled photons. If environmental interactions cause decoherence, it disturbs entanglement because the interacting environment obtains information, therefore, making secure exchange impossible, rather than dispersion or nonlinear effects.
