Researchers have found a clever way to make quantum dots, tiny light-emitting crystals, produce streams of perfectly controlled photons without relying on expensive, complex electronics. By using a ...

Scientists have taken a major step toward ultra-secure quantum communication by demonstrating a remarkably stable quantum encryption system that worked across more than 120 kilometers of optical fiber ...

Plastic films that can convert UV light into wavelengths that could supercharge crop growth are one potential use for a groundbreaking material produced from perovskite quantum dots (PeQDs).

U.S.-based thin-film solar module manufacturer First Solar announced it has entered a supply agreement with UbiQD, a developer of quantum dot nanotechnology. The collaboration is expected to enable ...
