N2 - It is shown that sub-0.1/μm Si nanocrystal bulk MOSFET with thin SiN tunnel insulator is a very strong random noise source used in high-rate smallsize random number generation circuit, which is required for cryptograph application in mobile network security, A fast random number generation rate of 0.12 MHz is demonstrated using Si nanocrystal MOSFET and a simple small circuit. It is suggested that a small-size random number generator with MHz generation rate, which is applicable for almost all security uses in our computer society, is possible by Si nanocrystal MOSFET device design.
