Physicists at Paderborn University have, for the first time, experimentally demonstrated the so-called "return" of Rabi ...

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 ...

In one sentence: A quantum dot laser is a semiconductor laser whose gain medium contains nanoscale quantum dots that confine electrons and holes in all three dimensions, producing discrete energy ...

Researchers have found a clever way to make quantum dots, tiny light-emitting crystals, produce streams of perfectly controlled photons without relying on expensive, complex electronics. By using a ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Augmented-reality glasses and near-eye microdisplays need tightly packed light-emitting pixels. At that scale, a pattern can fail even when it looks correctly drawn. A narrow ...

Creating entangled photon pairs often requires intense excitation of nonlinear materials or the active manipulation of quantum devices. Now, entanglement between two photons has been created by ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Dianne Plummer is an Energy Consultant and Certified Energy Manager. Solar power is the fastest-growing source of new electricity ...

Plastic films that can convert UV light into wavelengths that could supercharge crop growth are one potential use for a groundbreaking material produced from perovskite quantum dots (PeQDs).
