Abstract:
An optical system uses a multi-layered birefringent structure that receives an input beam that may be non-coherent or coherent, and produces a randomization energy from the input beam, by creating birefringent induced beam subdivisions as the beam passes through each birefringent layer, where after the beam has passed through a threshold number of birefringent layers, a randomized energy distribution is created. That randomized energy distribution is read by a photodetector and converted into a random number by a randomization processing device.

Claim (Index 11):
A method for generating a randomization, the method comprising:\n receiving, into a birefringent structure comprising a plurality of layers, wherein each layer has a birefringent axis that is misaligned with a birefringent axis of each previous layer, a beam from a beam source; subdividing the beam, by passing the beam through the layers of the birefringent structure, such that the beam impending upon the birefringent structure is subdivided into additional beams to collectively form an increasingly bifurcating beam; detecting, by a photodetector, randomization energy generated by the bifurcated beam exiting the birefringent structure; and producing a parallel randomized output signal from the randomization energy detected at the photodetector.
