Unlike most such articles, this one, published in the Australian 
popular science magazine "Cosmos" (cosmosmagazine.com) is brief but quite 
readable.  Showing a sense of humour, the researchers named a pair of 
electrons Alice and Bob, both trapped inside a crystal at opposite ends of 
the lab, and sent a message encrypted with Alice's private key (using her 
"spin") towards Bob.
