Devices that can confine individual electrons are potential building blocks for quantum information systems. But the electrons must be protected from external disturbances. RIKEN researchers have now ...

In order to build the computers and devices of tomorrow, we have to understand how they use energy today. That's harder than it sounds. Memory storage, information processing, and energy use in these ...

Precise measurements show that future quantum computers may need to correct for errors caused by interference between neighboring quantum dots.

硅基量子计算公司近日正式推出 Quantum Twins （量子孪生）——一款面向特定应用的量子模拟器，旨在加速分子与新材料的发现。该平台基于原子级精度的半导体制造技术构建，能够以经典计算机无法实现的方式对量子物理和化学过程进行建模。

A long-standing bottleneck in photonic quantum technology may finally be easing. Researchers in Germany ...

Quantum dots are composed of semiconducting materials like cadmium selenide (CdSe) or indium arsenide (InAs) and can be synthesized through various methods. For instance, colloidal synthesis and ...

The 2023 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was focused on quantum dots -- objects so tiny, they're controlled by the strange rules of quantum physics. Quantum dots used in electronics are often toxic, but ...

The race to build reliable quantum computers is fraught with obstacles, and one of the most difficult to overcome is related ...

Colloidal quantum dots are solution-based nanocrystals prized for their unique light-harvesting abilities. They can illuminate, create color, harness solar energy and function as semiconductors. These ...

Some of today's high-end televisions contain quantum dots, tiny components that can help screens produce more vibrant colors. At least, that's what TV manufacturers claim. If you don't observe the ...
