KAUST, KACST Set New Benchmark in Data Security with Quantum Innovation
A collaborative team of scientists from King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) and King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology (KACST) has achieved a groundbreaking milestone in data security. The researchers have developed the world's fastest quantum random number generator (QRNG), according to international performance standards. QRNG In a statement from KAUST, the university announced that their QRNG successfully passed the rigorous randomness tests set by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The device generates random numbers at speeds nearly 1,000 times faster than existing QRNGs. 'This marks a major breakthrough for industries that rely on robust data security,' said Professor Boon Ooi of KAUST, lead author of the study published in Optics Express . Random number generators are essential for secure applications in sectors like healthcare, finance, and defense. However, conventional systems often rely on 'pseudo-random' algorithms — complex but ultimately predictable computations. In contrast, QRNGs use quantum mechanics to generate truly random numbers, making them inherently more secure. 'Unlike traditional systems, quantum random number generators don't just appear random — they are fundamentally unpredictable due to their quantum basis,' explained Professor Ooi. The team's record-setting performance was made possible by innovative advances in both device fabrication and post-processing algorithms. Their QRNG utilizes ultra-small micro-LEDs — only a few micrometers in size — which significantly lower power consumption and enhance portability, enabling broader deployment across various technologies. Dr. Abdullah Almogbel, a contributing researcher from KACST's Microelectronics and Semiconductors Institute and Director of the Center of Excellence for Solid-State Lighting, emphasized the project's alignment with Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030. KAUST 'KACST is dedicated to advancing applied research that supports national goals, especially in positioning the Kingdom as a global leader in strategic fields like quantum-enabled technologies,' said Almogbel. 'Research like this has the potential to deliver high value across multiple industries and enhance Saudi Arabia's global competitiveness.' National Institute of Standard and Technology (NIST), an internationally recognized authority in measurement standards, sets the benchmarks used to validate the quality and integrity of random number generators.

IIT Madras launches 2 indigenously developed silicon photonics products
New Delhi: The Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Madras on Saturday launched two indigenously developed silicon photonics products, a first for India. The products designed and developed indigenously at CoE-CPPICS at the IIT Madras can be quickly adopted by the market. "Indigenously developed field deployable silicon photonic-based quantum random number generator (QRNG) module is a pride for India. The product has been delivered to DRDO to help in advanced quantum cryptography," said S. Krishnan, IAS, Secretary, MeitY , while congratulating CoE-CPPICS. The two products launched during the occasion include the Fibre-Array Unit (FAU) attachment tool for Photonic Chip Packaging and the silicon photonic QRNG (Quantum Random Number Generator). The QRNG module will be available commercially for potential customers through the CPPICS spin-off start-up " LightOnChip ". The key applications of QRNG are IT security for military and defence, Cryptographic algorithms, Quantum key distribution (QKD), Scientific Modelling and Simulations, Financial transactions/ Blockchain/ OTP, Gaming Applications, the Insititute said "Silicon Photonics is an emerging technology that will certainly help design much more efficient and complex hardware for the future. I am very happy that the Silicon Photonics CoE-CPPICS Centre at IIT Madras has now come out with demonstrable products that can be quickly adopted by the market. We hope that multiple such products will continue to come in the future," said Prof. V. Kamakoti, Director, IIT Madras. Photonic packaging and assembly are a complex and multi-disciplinary design and manufacturing process. To make a Photonic Integrated Circuits (PIC)-enabled module perform according to specification, sub-micron precision alignment and bonding process are required. At the same time, precise thermal management is required to maintain the thermo-optic stability of the signals. CoE-CPPICS aims to provide better solutions for microwave and quantum photonics applications such as advanced photonic processors to be used in high-performance RF transceivers, scalable linear optical quantum computing processors for the next-generation qubit computation, and chip-level quantum key generation and distribution circuits, etc. CPPICS is actively developing indigenous PIC design rules and hardware infrastructure for precision packaging for system-level applications.
