摘要

Many existing quantum dialogue (QD) protocols rely on multi-particle entanglement, which suffers from severe environmental decoherence. To circumvent this issue, this paper proposes a QD protocol based on single-photon polarization and spatial degrees of freedom. Furthermore, to overcome the passive information leakage vulnerabilities found in previous dual-degree-of-freedom protocols, our scheme employs a dual-randomization encryption mechanism. This approach severs the statistical correlation between ciphertexts and plaintexts to ensure security. Theoretical analysis indicates that the protocol resists common attacks, including Trojan-horse, intercept-resend, and entangle-and-measure attacks. Experimental results yield a measurement fidelity of 95.77% on the IBM ibm_fez superconducting quantum processor. Additionally, even under high channel loss conditions, its single-pulse detection probability remains well above the dark count baseline, demonstrating superior robustness over typical multi-particle GHZ and cluster state protocols. The results demonstrate that this protocol provides a practical and feasible solution for quantum communication networks.
