Reliability Assessment of Optical Physical Unclonable Functions Based on the Spatial Distribution of Catastrophic Failure Sites in MIM Structures by Marc Porti, Alvaro Solis, Alex Calatayud, Montserrat Nafria, Enrique Miranda

“…When the energy released by the sudden occurrence of this kind of shorts is high enough, the events are clearly detected in the top area of the structure as a random spatial point pattern. As it was demonstrated in previous works, the distribution of failure sites obtained this way can be used to generate optically detectable cryptographic keys in the context of Physically Unclonable Functions (PUFs). …”
