Recent progress in quantum key distribution (QKD) is briefly reviewed and a control circuit for driving phase modulator is presented using high-speed and high frequency analog switch. Phase modulator is an indispensable optical modulator in quantum key distribution as it can affect the quantum bit error rate. Simulation results show that the output voltage pulse width can be less than 10ns,which can be well applied to quantum key distribution system. The feasibility and reliability of the scheme are verified through theoretical analysis and experiment results.
