A simple high-speed random number generator with minimal post-processing using a random Raman fiber laser

Abstract A simple novel method for random number generation is presented, based on a random Raman fiber laser. This laser is built in a half-open cavity scheme, closed on one side by a narrow-linewidth 100 mm fiber Bragg grating. The interaction between the randomly excited lasing modes of this lase...
