Quantum random number generation has attracted significant attention because it enables highly reliable randomness based on the inherent unpredictability of quantum mechanics. In particular, schemes utilizing vacuum fluctuations can achieve high-speed and high-quality random number generation. In this study, we generate uniform random numbers from the normally distributed output of a balanced detector, employing the inverse Box–Muller transformation in place of the conventional binning method. As a result, we achieved a generation rate of 20 Gbit/s while passing all NIST SP800-90B tests.
