With the rise of quantum computers, the security of our existing communication systems is at risk. Quantum computers will be able to break many of the encryption methods used in current communication ...

Quantum dots, semiconductor nanostructures exhibiting discrete energy levels, have emerged as quintessential quantum emitters for on‐demand single-photon generation. Their unique confinement ...

A long-standing bottleneck in photonic quantum technology may finally be easing. Researchers in Germany have demonstrated a deterministic photon source that operates in the telecom C-band while ...

A series of experiments across multiple research groups has shown that deliberately implanting atomic-scale defects into ordinary silicon can turn the world’s most common semiconductor into a source ...
