DR. LASZLO KISH

reported that
Dr. Laszlo Kish, a professor in the
Department
of Electrical
and Computer Engineering at Texas A&M, has proposed that a simple pair of
resistors on the ends of a communications line could keep eavesdroppers
from intercepting secret messages.
The scheme uses the thermal noise (Johnson noise) produced by the
resistors or added electrical noise to make it function and keep the
message secret.
The sender and receiver each have two resistors of different resistance.
Each randomly connects a resistor between their ends of the wire and
ground, and then the sender begins transmitting the message. Using the
natural thermal noise produced by the resistors provides stealth makes
the communication difficult to discover.
Dr. Laszlo Kish received a Physicist Diploma (MS) from
Attila József
University (JATE), Hungary in 1980 and a Doctoral Degree in Solid
State
Physics (Summa cum laude) from JATE in 1984. He received a Docent in
Solid State Physics (habilitation) from
Uppsala University, Sweden in
1994. He received a Doctor of Science (Physics), from the
Hungarian
Academy of Science in 2001. He was recipient of the year of the
2001
Benzelius Prize of the
Royal Society of Science of Sweden for his
activities on chemical sensing.
Laszlo is Editor-in-Chief of
Fluctuation and Noise Letters and serves on
the Editorial Board of
Nanotechnology Newsletter and
Journal of
Nanoscience and Nanotechnology. He is the author of 8 patents
and 200+
international publications. He was the Chair of SPIE's
Conference on Bio-MEMS and Smart Nanostructures at
Adelaide, Australia in 2001.
He coedited
Gas Phase Nanoparticle Synthesis,
Unsolved Problems of Noise and Fluctuations : UPoN'99: Second
International Conference, Adelaide, Australia 11-15 July 1999 (AIP
Conference Proceedings), and
