Researchers have developed all-electrical ultra-thin quantum LEDs, which have potential as on-chip photon sources in quantum information applications, including quantum networks for quantum computers.
A team of scientists have measured a bizarre effect in quantum physics, in which individual particles of light are said to have been “squeezed” – an achievement which at least one textbook had written off as hopeless.
The causes of a hitherto mysterious process that could enhance the power of solar cells have been explained in a new study.
Defects in microscopic diamonds caused by the presence of silicon could provide researchers with a potent basis for developing new technologies, including nanoscale sensing devices.
A quantum fluid trapped on top of a semiconductor chip can be used to measure movements to astonishing precision.
Scientists have developed a new kind of solar cell which could capture significantly more of the energy from the sun than current cells.
