Tiny tubes of carbon that emit single photons from just one point along their length have been made in a deterministic manner by RIKEN researchers. Such carbon nanotubes could form the basis of future ...

Researchers are learning to flip light on and off one particle at a time, turning single photons into a controllable resource instead of a random byproduct of exotic materials. By engineering ...

Researchers at the University of Oxford and collaborators have used femtosecond laser pulses to activate individual single-photon emitters inside high-purity diamond, a step that could make ...

Quantum Photonics Group of BAQIS, led by Chief Scientist Dr Zhiliang Yuan and in collaboration with the Institute of Semiconductors CAS, has recently published a research article entitled “A ...

Researchers at The University of Osaka, in collaboration with ULVAC, Inc. and Ritsumeikan University, have developed a new ...

Figure 1: Cover highlight of the experiment. Single photons emitted by a quantum dot embedded in a photonic device are coupled into a fibre and encoded by ‘Alice’ into three distinct time-bin qubits.

A team of researchers of the University of Stuttgart and Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg led by Stuttgart’s Prof. Stefanie Barz has demonstrated a source of single photons that combines ...
