The Quantum Information and Computing (QuIC) lab at Raman Research Institute, Bengaluru had performed a photonic experiment to demonstrate violation of what are called the Leggett Garg Inequalities (LGI)– — a litmus test for “quantumness” in a system in a loophole free manner.
Scientists have successfully generated random numbers using temporal correlations certified by the violation of the Leggett Garg Inequality (LGI).
These are temporal analogues of the popularly known Bell inequalities– a set of mathematical expressions that compare the predictions of quantum mechanics with those of classical physics.
In today’s digital world, where we rely heavily on technology, strong passwords are vital for everyone’s safety. This new method offers the enhanced protection we all need in our daily lives, by using truly random numbers to generate keys that will be used to encrypt the passwords, the researchers noted.
