Solid-state quantum light sources have the potential to boost quantum communication [1,2]. Here, we report on tools to optimize the performance of quantum key distribution (QKD) implemented with single-photon sources (SPSs). We analyze the performance of a receiver module designed for polarization-encoded QKD using deterministically-fabricated quantum dot SPSs. Exploiting two-dimensional temporal filtering and real-time security monitoring, we analyze the sifted key fraction, the quantum bit error ratio, and g(2)(0) expected in full implementations of the BB84 protocol as a function of the acceptance time-window. This routine enables us to choose optimal filter settings depending on the losses of the quantum channel [3]. Our findings are relevant for the development of QKD-secured communication networks based on quantum-light sources.
