A device may include a processor configured to select a quantum key distribution transmission; identify an optical fiber path via which the quantum key distribution transmission is to be performed; determine one or more values for at least one transmission parameter for the identified optical fiber path; and select a pulse script for the optical fiber path based on the determined one or more values for the at least one transmission parameter. The processor may be further configured to perform the quantum key distribution transmission via the identified optical fiber path using the selected pulse script.

Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, identifying a request to facilitate communications between first and second processing nodes, determining that the communications are to be established via quantum teleportation between, and identifying a network path comprising a first path segment to obtain a quantum channel, wherein quantum entanglement is established between the first and second processing nodes based on transportation of a first quantum entangled object via the quantum channel. A classical communication channel is facilitated between the first and second processing nodes, adapted to exchange between the nodes, quantum state information of a measurement performed upon the first quantum entangled object. Information is exchanged between the first and second processing nodes via the quantum channel according to the transported first quantum entangled object and the exchanged quantum state information. Other embodiments are disclosed.

A resonator for coherent oscillator matterwaves (COMW) includes a cavity bound by reflectors. The reflectors are fields of light blue-detuned with respect to an energy-level transition of the rubidium 87 (.sup.87Rb) atoms that constitute the COMW. One of the reflectors is partially transmissive to that COMW can enter and exit the resonator. The COMW resonator can be used to stabilize a COMW oscillator much as an optical resonator can stabilize a laser.
