For the first time, researchers in China have demonstrated how quantum dots can be engineered to consistently generate pairs of entangled photons. By carefully tailoring the photonic environment ...

Super quantum dots might be the next big (OK, little) thing in TVs. At least, that's what companies such as TCL want you to believe. While "regular" quantum dots have greatly improved the performance ...

Quantum dots are attractive because of their tunability. Their size directly controls how they absorb and emit light, giving researchers a single material that can be adapted for different optical, ...

In one sentence: A quantum dot laser is a semiconductor laser whose gain medium contains nanoscale quantum dots that confine electrons and holes in all three dimensions, producing discrete energy ...
