Quantum technologies: quantum random number generation
The quantum random number generator (QRNG) is arguably one of the most successful applications of quantum physics. I will present the basic principles of QRNG and then expose our recent work in the field. In particular, I will present a self-testing QRNG, inspired by device-independent protocols, which allows for continuously estimating the generated entropy. In the second part of the talk, I will present our superconducting detectors, which we fabricate at EPFL.
