Abstract

This paper is written in the memory of H. John Caulfield, a unique breaking through scientist that was known for his capability of thinking “out of the box” and which has made large number of significant scientific contributions in many optics related fields. In the last few years of his carrier, John has invested some time in the field of optical quantum computing and encryption. In this paper we wish to describe one of such directions investigated by John and dealing with optical quantum encryption and processing.
