Quantum secure direct communication allows one participant to transmit secret messages to another directly without generating a shared secret key first. In most of the existing schemes, quantum secure direct communication can be achieved only when the two participants have full quantum ability. In this paper, we propose two semi-quantum secure direct communication protocols to allow restricted semi-quantum or “classical” users to participate in quantum communication. A semi-quantum user is restricted to measure, prepare, reorder and reflect quantum qubits only in the classical basis [Formula: see text]. Both protocols rely on quantum Alice to randomly prepare Bell states, perform Bell basis measurements and publish the initial Bell states, but the semi-quantum Bob only needs to measure the qubits in classical basis to obtain secret information without quantum memory. Security and qubit efficiency analysis have been given in this paper. The analysis results show that the two protocols can avoid some eavesdropping attacks and their qubit efficiency is higher than some current related quantum or semi-quantum protocols.

In this paper, we develop a quantum network with a mutual quantum secure direct communication scheme based on multiparty quantum secret sharing. This quantum network, assumed to contain clusters S, M, and D, shares a sequence of single photons and Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ) states. Each cluster is made of the same or similar quantum nodes gathered or occurring closely together. The feature of this scheme is that the communication between two clusters depends on the agreement of the third cluster. We also prove that such a quantum network is unconditionally secure.PACS Nos.: 03.67.–Dd, 03.67.–Hk, 89.70.–a
