论文摘要
在本文中，我们描述了包含Mach-Zhhnder干涉仪的大型集成线性光学设备的特征，并将其潜在用途描述为物理上不可吻合的功能。我们建议，任何可调的实用量表的可调干涉设备在本质上是不可统的，并且具有固有的随机性，这对于许多实际应用都可能有用。所测试的设备具有额外的用例作为通用光子操纵工具，并根据我们原型的实验结果进行了各种应用。一旦我们的可调节干涉设备设置为一个物理上无统治的功能，我们发现大约有6.85x10E35挑战 - 响应对，可以通过调整干涉仪阵列来快速重新配置每个挑战以解决后续挑战。
In this article we describe the characteristics of a large integrated linear optical device containing Mach-Zehnder interferometers and describe its potential use as a physically unclonable function. We propose that any tunable interferometric device of practical scale will be intrinsically unclonable and will possess an inherent randomness that can be useful for many practical applications. The device under test has the additional use-case as a general-purpose photonic manipulation tool, with various applications based on the experimental results of our prototype. Once our tunable interferometric device is set to work as a physically unclonable function, we find that there are approximately 6.85x10E35 challenge-response pairs, where each challenge can be quickly reconfigured by tuning the interferometer array for subsequent challenges.
