Abstract

The authors use polarization-entangled photon pairs to generate random numbers from quantum nonlocality. The unpredictability of the generated randomness is certified via quantum steering with the detection loophole closed.

All entangled states can generate certified randomness

Xing Chen

Random number has many applications, it plays an important role in quantum information processing. It's not difficult to generate true random numbers, the main difficulty is how to certify the random numbers generated by untrusted devices. In [Nature(London) 464, 1021 (2010)], the authors provided us a way to generate certified random number by Bell's theorem. In their scheme, we can use the nonlocal behavior of entangled states to generate certified randomness. But there are entangled states, which admit a local hidden variable model, could not be used in their scheme. We show in our paper that the nonlocal correlations in every entangled state can be used to generate certified randomness, and we use Werner states as an example to show how to quantify the output randomness.

We experimentally demonstrate a self-testing quantum random number generation based on an detection-loophole free Bell test with entangled photons. We achieve a final random bit rate of 114 bits/s, with a failure probability less than 10−5.

Quantum steering with rotation-invariant twisted photons with the detection loophole closed

Sergei Slussarenko, Dominick J. Joch, Nora Tischler +5 more

Violating a nonlocality inequality enables the most powerful remote quantum information tasks and fundamental tests of physics. Loophole-free photonic verification of nonlocality has been achieved with polarization-entangled photon pairs, but not with states entangled in other degrees of freedom. Here we demonstrate completion of the quantum steering nonlocality task, with the detection loophole closed, when entanglement is distributed by transmitting a photon in an optical vector vortex state, formed by optical orbital angular momentum (OAM) and polarization. The demonstration of vector vortex steering opens the door to new free-space and satellite-based secure quantum communication devices and device-independent protocols.

Here we demonstrate completion of the quantum steering nonlocality task, with the detection loophole closed, when entanglement is distributed by transmitting a photon in an optical vector vortex state, formed by optical orbital angular momentum (OAM) and polarization. As well as opening up a high-efficiency encoding beyond polarization, the critically important demonstration of vector vortex steering opens the door to new free-space and satellite-based secure quantum communication devices and device-independent protocols.
