WASHINGTON -- Researchers have shown that a chip-based device measuring a millimeter square could be used to generate quantum-based random numbers at gigabit per ...

The search for a better, smaller, faster “true” random number generator—increasingly needed for strong cryptography and security—has fascinated technologists for many years, as they seek genuine ...

A team of international scientists has developed a laser that can generate 254 trillion random digits per second, more than a hundred times faster than computer-based random number generators (RNG).

Using a single, chip-scale laser, scientists have managed to generate streams of completely random numbers at about 100 times the speed of the fastest random-numbers generator systems that are ...

WASHINGTON, June 29, 2021 -- As pervasive as they are in everyday uses, like encryption and security, randomly generated digital numbers are seldom truly random. So far, only bulky, relatively slow ...
