DIM-Based Random Number Generation Using Quantum Noise Resources

Figure 4

Random number generation process in cryptographic system using quantum mechanics. When configuring the quantum random number generator, the most important aspect is building small parts that generate quantum noise resources. This is directly related to the cost of a quantum random number generator, and accordingly, commercialized quantum random number generators are produced in a compact size compared to general hardware parts. It is well-known how to generate a random sequence using the spacing of random signals generated during the decay of radioactive isotopes or by calculating photons passing through or reflected from beam splitters.
