Ultrafast Random Number Generation Based on Random Laser

Juntao Li, Jinbo Liu, Dong Liu +5 more

True random numbers with high security originate from non-deterministic physical processes. Random laser with random feedback arising from multiple elastic scattering in a highly disordered structure is an ideal physical entropy source theoretically. In this work, a secure optical ultrafast random number generator based on random laser spectra was demonstrated. Unlike the usual method of recording laser intensity over time, the random laser spectrum under each pump pulse was recorded and converted into random numbers through post-processing. Approaches in three different dimensions—space, spectrum and time were used to increase the rate of random number generation. The randomness of resulting random bit streams was verified by the NIST statistics tests. Experimental results showed that an instantaneous bit rate of 810 terabits per second with off-line post-processing could be theoretically reached with an ideal experimental condition. This novel technique has big advantages in secure communications and promises to further increase the speed of random number generators to the lever of petabits per second or even higher.

The development of both the ultrafast lasers and the growth technique of high quality semiconductor nano-structures gives us the ability to manipulate the quantum dynamics by a coherent control[l] and the possibility to apply the coherent phenomena to ultrafast novel devices.

Novel applications of photonic signal processing: Temporal cloaking and biphoton pulse shaping

Joseph M. Lukens

We experimentally demonstrate two innovative applications of photonic technologies previously solidified in the field of classical optical communications. In the first application, we exploit electro-optic modulator technology to develop a novel "time cloak,'' a device which hides events in time by manipulating the flow of a probing light beam. Our temporal cloak is capable of masking high-speed optical data from a receiver, greatly improving the feasibility of time cloaking and bringing such exotic concepts to the verge of practical application. In the second specialization, high-resolution Fourier-transform pulse shaping---perfected for multi-wavelength telecom networks---is applied to shape the correlations of entangled photon pairs, states which have received considerable attention in nonlocal tests of quantum theory and in quantum key distribution. Using nonlinear waveguides fabricated out of periodically poled lithium niobate, we are able to demonstrate ultrafast coincidence detection with record-high efficiency, which coupled with our pulse shaper allows us to realize for the first time several capabilities in biphoton control, including high-order dispersion cancellation, orthogonal spectral coding, correlation train generation, and tunable delay control. Each of these experiments represents an important advance in quantum state manipulation, with the potential to impact developments in quantum information. And more generally, our work introducing telecommunication technology into both temporal cloaking and biphoton control highlights the potential of such tools in more nascent outgrowths of classical and quantum optics.
