The aim of quantum key distribution protocols is to establish a secret key among two parties with high security confidence. Such algorithms generally require a quantum channel and an authenticated classical channel. This paper presents a totally new perception of communication in such protocols. The quantum communication alone satisfies all needs of array communication between the two parties. Even so, the quantum communication channel does not need to be protected or authenticated whatsoever. As such, our algorithm is a purely quantum key distribution algorithm. The only certain identification of the two parties is through public keys.
