Carbon nanotubes are moving from lab curiosities to workhorse components in quantum hardware, and one of the most striking examples is their use as single-photon light sources. By exploiting their ...

The new method, which uses quantum dots, performs as well as or better than current infrared light sources while being much ...

“Our participants created a complete lighting survey for public spaces with a total surface area of about 22 square kilometers,” Kyba says proudly. After co-developing the “Nachtlichter” app ...
