A method to accurately center quantum dots within photonic chips

Devices that capture the brilliant light from millions of quantum dots, including chip-scale lasers and optical amplifiers, have made the transition from laboratory experiments to commercial products. But newer types of quantum-dot devices have been slower to come to market because they require extraordinarily accurate alignment between individual dots and the miniature optics that extract

Cracking the quantum code: Simulations track entangled quarks

Today, the word “quantum” is everywhere—in company names, movie titles, even theaters. But at its core, the concept of a quantum—the tiniest, discrete amount of something—was first developed to explain the behavior of the smallest bits of matter and energy.Quantum Physics NewsRead More
