Researchers analyze the picoantenna-like directional behaviour of tunnel junctions formed by surface defects at the atomic ...

When a semiconductor is struck by a photon with energy higher than the ... Förster resonance energy transfer; QD: Quantum dot; TGA: Thioglycolic acid; TOPO: Trioctylphosphine oxide.

According to a study published in Science Advances, researchers from Madrid explain why the angular profile of light emission ...

When tackling this, it’s important to note that the specifications governing quantum photonic components (QPCs) are so tough to fulfil that unviable processes will prevent component prices from ...

Here, the authors demonstrate coherent control of an InAs/InP quantum dot, as well as entanglement between its electron spin and the frequency of a telecom photon. A single electron quantum dot in ...

The primary mechanisms leading to the production of single and entangled photon pairs revolve around established ... compared to other solid-state platforms such as semiconductor quantum dots or NV ...

Scintillators are detectors that make high-energy X-rays or particles visible through flashes of light to form an image.

Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh is the only Scottish stop on the tour – called the QuanTour – which aims to raise ...

Heriot Watt University is set to welcome a pioneering light source which aspires to transform computing and cybersecurity.
