Quantum communication is an aspect of quantum informationscience, which is a study based on the fact that informationsciences depend mainly on quantum effects in physics. Itinvolves several experimental topics in quantum physicsincluding computational models. It also covers areas of quantumphysics that can be carried out using quantum information andthose that cannot. In this script, you will learn about thevarious subfields that can be found under quantumcommunication. You will equally learn about the severalapplications of quantum communication to the day to dayactivities of humans. Also in this script, we will review thepresent state of quantum communication research and what thefuture direction is in this field of science. We are equally goingto place special emphasis on quantum network as well asquantum key distribution.
