Abstract
In this paper, inspired by Wang et al.’s deterministic secure quantum communication (DSQC) scheme (Commun. Theor. Phys. 60 (2013) 397–404), a novel quantum dialogue (QD) scheme is put forward also by using Bell states and single photons as quantum resource. The proposed scheme can effectively overcome the active attacks launched by an outside attacker, such the intercept-resend attack, the measure-resend attack, the entangle-measure attack, etc. The information-theoretical efficiency of the proposed scheme is as high as 66.67%.
