Dossier 001 — v1.0.1 (first living amendment)

Absorbs issue #1 into all publication surfaces: rate projections now labeled architecture-dependent following the author's same-day reality check (~1/M per-channel acceptance penalty). PIE claims unaffected. v1.0.0 (claim), issue #1 (critique), and v1.0.1 (correction) are each independently archived.

Dossier 001 — v1.0 (publication of record)

Energy–time entangled photon pairs carry 16–20 bits of potential key per coincidence; demonstrated systems extract 3–7, limited by detector timing jitter. This work proposes placing single-photon time lenses inside the receivers of a dispersive-optics QKD link, magnifying arrival-time structure before detection so the effective resolution beats the jitter by the magnification M — projecting 13–15 bits per coincidence and key rates of order 108 b/s from demonstrated components, with a nonlocal variant in which the fiber's own dispersion completes an imaging system that exists only in coincidences.
