QRANGE

Other work is focusing on modeling the devices, designing efficient randomness extractors, studying new semi device-independent concepts, and developing a full certification scheme of QRNG devices compliant with the highest security standards.

QRANGE brings together a multidisciplinary consortium of 9 partners from 5 European countries, including academic, research, and industrial partners. The project coordinator Prof Hugo Zbinden is based at the University of Geneva.

Part of the European UnionEuropean Union's Quantum Flagship initiative, QRANGE is a 3-year project launched in October 2018 with €3,187,282.50 in funding. The project aims to develop Quantum Random Number Generators (QRNG), making the technology cheaper, faster, and more secure. These technologies have applications in the Internet of Things (IOT), digital security and high-performance computing.

In October 2018 the QRANGE project was chosen as part of the European Union's Quantum Flagship iniative receiving €3,187,282.50 in funding.

QRANGE is developing 3 QRNG prototypes:

• A fully integrated low-cost QRNG based on standard CMOS technology for IOT applications.
• A high-speed phase-diffusion scheme based on the interference of laser pulses with random phase relationship featuring bit rates of up to 10Gb/s.
• A self-testing QRNG, which allows for a continuous estimation of the generated entropy.
