Experimental demonstration of a high speed quantum random number generation scheme based on measuring phase noise of a single mode laser

preprint2009arXivOpen access

Abstract

We present a high speed random number generation scheme based on measuring the quantum phase noise of a single mode diode laser operating at a low intensity level near the lasing threshold. A delayed self-heterodyning system has been developed to measure the random phase fluctuation.By actively stabilizing the phase of the fiber interferometer, a random number generation rate of 500Mbit/s has been demonstrated and the generated random numbers have passed all the DIEHARD tests.
