Abstract
In this paper we study experimentally the properties of three types of quantum -optical random-number generators and characterize them using the available National Institute for Standards and Technology statistical tests, as well as four alternate tests. The generators are characterized by a trade-off between, on one hand, the rate of generation of random bits and, on the other hand, the degree of randomness of the series which they deliver. We describe various techniques aimed at maximizing this rate without diminishing the quality (degree of randomness) of the series generated by it.

Random bit generation at tunable rates using a chaotic semiconductor laser under distributed feedback.

TL;DR: A semiconductor laser with distributed feedback from a fiber Bragg grating that provides distributed feedback which effectively suppresses the information of the round-trip feedback delay time is investigated for random bit generation (RBG).

Design and implementation of true random number generators based on semiconductor superlattice chaos

TL;DR: The entropy estimation method to evaluate the raw data from the entropy harvester quantitatively is introduced, thus optimized the parameter design of the LFSR-Toeplitz extractor for post-processing and the resulting hardware's output passes the NIST standard statistical test.

The Fractal Geometry of Nature

TL;DR: A blend of erudition (fascinating and sometimes obscure historical minutiae abound), popularization (mathematical rigor is relegated to appendices) and exposition (the reader need have little knowledge of the fields involved) is presented in this article.
