“It’s a molecularly perfect coating, which presents a uniform environment for the single-photon-emitting sites,” Hersam said.

Quantum technologies demand perfection: one photon at a time, every time, all with the same energy. Even tiny deviations in ...

As the demand for more secure data transmission increases, conventional communication technologies are facing limitations imposed by classical physics, and are therefore approaching their limits in ...

Scientists across the world are working to make quantum technologies viable at scale—an achievement that requires a reliable way to generate qubits, or quantum bits, which are the fundamental units of ...
