The identification relies on the the atomic-scale uniqueness of semiconductor devices by measuring a macroscopic quantum property of the system in question. Traditionally, objects and electronic systems have been securely identified by measuring specific characteristics: common examples include passwords, fingerprints used to identify a person or an electronic device, and holograms that can tag a given object to prove its authenticity. Unfortunately, modern technologies also make it possible to circumvent these everyday techniques. Variations in quantum properties are amplified by the existence of atomic-scale imperfections. As such, these devices are the hardest possible systems to clone. They also use the least resources and provide robust security. Hence they have tremendous potential significance as a means of reliably telling the good guys from the bad. 410 0$aSpringer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,$x2190-5053 606 $aSemiconductors 606 $aSystem safety 606 $aOptical materials 606 $aElectronics$xMaterials 606 $aSemiconductors$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25150 606 $aSecurity Science and Technology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31080 606 $aOptical and Electronic Materials$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z12000 615 0$aSemiconductors. 615 0$aSystem safety. 615 0$aOptical materials. 615 0$aElectronics$xMaterials. 615 14$aSemiconductors. 615 24$aSecurity Science and Technology. 615 24$aOptical and Electronic Materials. 676 $a537.622 700 $aRoberts$b Jonathan$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0996354 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254594303321 996 $aUsing Imperfect Semiconductor Systems for Unique Identification$92283955 997 $aUNINA
