Abstract:
A mathematical model of quantum random number generator based on vacuum fluctuations is considered. A mathematical justification for the "randomness’’ of the generated sequence is given under the assumption of the truth of the basic postulates of quantum theory and the validity of the Poisson probability distribution for the photon flux. The results of experiments and the obtained estimates of the minimum entropy are presented.
Keywords:
quantum random number generator, minimal entropy estimation, vacuum fluctuations.
