"""
It's possible to set the conditions up so that, say, 60 percent of the
gates end up occupied by a nanotube. But it's impossible to tell in advance
which ones will be occupied. The result is a collection of bits that are
randomly conducting or non-conducting—a perfect seed for cryptographic keys.
