Abstract

A circuit utilizing single electrons is demonstrated at room temperature. Individual electronsrandomly passing through the nanoscale silicon-on-insulator metal-oxide-semiconductorfield-effect transistor (MOSFET) are monitored by an electrometer in real time. Such arandom behavior of single electrons is used for high-quality random-number generationsuitable for data processing which stochastically extracts the most preferable patternamong various ones. MOSFET-based random-number generation allows fast operation aswell as high controllability, which leads to flexible extraction of the preferable pattern.
