Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We generated the physical random number by converting a fluctuation of the semiconductor laser’s frequency into a change of the optical intensity and digitizing it. We compared the generation speeds of random numbers using the Fabry-Perot type laser diode and VCSEL (Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser) and examined the influence of their internal structure. As a result, we generated random number bit strings at 120Gbit/s in VCSEL and at 77Gbit/s in FPLD. The VCSEL’s broad line-width enables us to generate random numbers with the greatest efficiency. However, fluctuations in both atmospheric temperature and the injection current to the semiconductor laser affect the laser’s oscillation frequency. Therefore, we improved the stability of generated fast physical random numbers using a semiconductor laser with a stabilized oscillation frequency. We proposed the new Optical Range Finder system used semiconductor laser’s frequency noise and obtained the resolution of 0.5mm.
