For the first time, researchers in China have demonstrated how quantum dots can be engineered to consistently generate pairs of entangled photons. By carefully tailoring the photonic environment ...

Quantum computers leverage the properties of quantum physics to process larger amounts of data significantly faster than classical computers. The basic units, quantum bits (or qubits), simultaneously ...

Over the past decade, researchers have become good at creating devices that emit single ...

Light-based quantum technologies, such as quantum communication and photonic quantum computing, require reliable sources of individual photons and, ideally, pairs of entangled photons. Semiconductor ...

A research team in China has built a quantum dot device that produces photon pairs with record-setting purity, achieving a two-photon fraction of 0.983(1). The work, published in Nature Materials, ...

Scientists have developed a new way to manufacture semiconductor quantum dots that emit faster ...

Newly achieved precise control over light emitted from incredibly tiny sources, a few nanometers in size, embedded in two-dimensional (2D) materials could lead to remarkably high-resolution monitors ...

QLED TV manufacturers have dug themselves into a hole. After years of companies promising that their quantum dot light-emitting diode TVs use quantum dots (QDs) to boost color, some industry watchers ...

The new paper outlines a novel computational strategy to predict qubit coherence times across thousands of 2D materials interfaced with substrates. Quantum technologies from ultrasensitive sensors to ...

Super quantum dots might be the next big (OK, little) thing in TVs. At least, that's what companies such as TCL want you to believe. While "regular" quantum dots have greatly improved the performance ...
