Ultrafast Quantum Random Number Generation Using Off-the-shelf Components
Carlos Abellan,Waldimar Amaya,Marc Jofre,Marcos Curty,Antonio Acín,José Capmany,Valerio Pruneri,Morgan W. Mitchell +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a 43 Gbps quantum random number generator using DPSK demodulation of pulses from a current-modulated laser diode was demonstrated, which is random by quantum phase diffusion, macroscopic, and detectable with off-the-shelf components.

Phase diffusion quantum entropy source on a silicon chip
Miquel Rudé,Carlos Abellan,Albert Capdevila,David Domenech,Morgan W. Mitchell,Waldimar Amaya,Valerio Pruneri +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an accelerated laser phase diffusion quantum entropy source with all non-laser optical and optoelectronic elements implemented in silicon photonics is presented, and the authors demonstrate Gbps raw entropy generation rates in a technology compatible with conventional CMOS fabrication techniques.

Ultra-fast quantum randomness generation by accelerated phase diffusion in a pulsed laser diode
Carlos Abellan,Waldimar Amaya,Marc Jofre,Marcos Curty,Antonio Acín,José Capmany,Valerio Pruneri,Morgan W. Mitchell +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate a high bit-rate quantum random number generator by interferometric detection of phase diffusion in a gain-switched DFB laser diode, where an unbalanced Mach-Zehnder interferometer is used to interfere subsequent pulses and thereby generate strong random-amplitude pulses, which are detected and digitized to produce a high rate random bit string.
