Our new paper “Semi-device independent random number generation with flexible assumptions” has been published in npj Quantum Information. Working along with theorists all over Europe, we formulated a framework for semi-device-independent quantum random number generation, and demonstrated the protocol with an experiment in the BBQ Lab. Our approach works with flexible assumptions and different levels of trust, allowing it to be implemented over a large number of practical situations.
This work was the result of an international collaboration that involved people in 6 different countries. Even though some of the co-authors haven’t even met in person, we developed theoretical methods and showed their experimental realisation. This is the power of science: joining people together, even during these difficult times!
