摘要
We show that the sensitivity to disorder of certain physical properties of periodic media depends on whether the disorder is truly random or not. This allows to utilize periodic media for testing sequences of random numbers and to quantify their departure from true randomness via simple transmission and/or reflection data analysis. This physics-based model shows promises for device applications to test random data. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
