Experimental quantum key distribution with active phase randomization

Phase-randomization is an important assumption in many security proofs of practical quantum key distribution (QKD) systems. Here, we present the first experimental QKD with reliable active phase-randomization. A polarization-insensitive phase-modulator is designed for our experiment.
