Quantum Light Source Coaxed to Emit Ultrashort Burst of Light at a Desired Moment in Time

Usually, an elementary light source – such as an excited atom or molecule – emits light at an unpredictable instance in time. This spontaneous emission of light is a fundamental process within applications such as LEDs and lasers. However, for other applications it is desirable to receive single photons (light) at a specific moment with as little uncertainty as possible.

NRL Scientists Demonstrate Highest Recorded Open-Circuit Voltages for Quantum Dot Solar Cells

U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) research scientists and engineers in the Electronics Science and Technology Division have demonstrated the highest recorded open-circuit voltages for quantum dot solar cells to date. Using colloidal lead sulfide (PbS) nanocrystal quantum dot (QD) substances, researchers achieved an open-circuit voltage (VOC) of 692 millivolts (mV) using the QD bandgap of a 1.4 electron volt (eV) in QD solar cell under one-sun illumination.

Single-Atom Transport Extended to Model Many-Body Setting of Bosonic Atom Transport

Scientists have pushed back the boundaries of atom-based transport, creating a current by charac-terising the many-body effects in the transport of the atoms along a periodic lattice. This work by Anton Ivanov and colleagues from the Institute for Theoretical Physics, at the University of Heidel-berg, Germany, adopted a new analytical approach before comparing it to approximate numerical simulations, and is reported in a paper recently published in EPJ B.

Novel Method Controls Quantum Bits for Quantum Communication in Quantum Dots

Researchers at the Niels Bohr Institute, together with colleagues in the US and Australia, have developed a method to control a quantum bit for electronic quantum communication in a series of quantum dots, which behave like artificial atoms in the solid state. The results have been published in the scientific journal Physical Review Letters.

JQI’s Semiconductor-Based Qubit Design Addresses Qubit Robustness Issues

Encoding information using quantum bits—which can be maintained in a superposition of states—is at the heart of quantum computing. Superposition states offer the advantage of massive parallelism compared to conventional computing using digital bits---which can assume only one value at a time.
