Patent CN106843804A uses Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI), the former requires the entire optical system to use full polarization maintaining fiber to ensure the polarization consistency of the two interference signals, which increases the cost of the system; patent CN105022606A uses Faraday-Michelson interferometer (FMI ), by using the Faraday reflector, the polarization change of the long and short arms can be automatically compensated to ensure the polarization consistency of the two interference signals. However, since the polarization rotation angle errors of the two Faraday reflectors cannot be completely the same, the polarization consistency will be reduced, thus affecting the stability of the interference
In addition, this scheme uses an interference signal as the feedback signal for phase compensation, and the fluctuation of the light intensity of the laser will affect the phase compensation process, thereby affecting the generation of random numbers.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of quantum security communication, in particular to a quantum random number generator based on laser phase noise. Background technique [0002] In modern society, random numbers are widely used in simulation, cryptography and many other fields. According to different generation principles, random numbers can be divided into two categories: pseudo-random numbers and true random numbers. Since pseudo-random numbers are generally generated by algorithms, as the threat of quantum computing becomes more and more pressing, pseudo-random numbers will become predictable, so their security cannot be guaranteed. Quantum random number generator (QRNG) is a new technology that uses the intrinsic properties of quantum physics to generate true random numbers. The random number generated by it is completely unpredictable, so it has true randomness, and it is also the most researched and mature quantum random number gener...
