Efficient semi-quantum secret sharing protocol using single particles

摘要

Semi-quantum secret sharing(SQSS)is a branch of quantum cryptography which only requires the dealer to have quantum capabilities,reducing the difficulty of protocol implementation.However,the efficiency of the SQSS protocol still needs to be further studied.In this paper,we propose a semi-quantum secret sharing protocol,whose efficiency can approach 100%as the length of message increases.The protocol is based on single particles to reduce the difficulty of resource preparation.Particle reordering,a simple but effective operation,is used in the protocol to improve efficiency and ensure security.Furthermore,our protocol can share specific secrets while most SQSS protocols could not.We also prove that the protocol is secure against common attacks.
