In one sentence: A quantum dot laser is a semiconductor laser whose gain medium contains nanoscale quantum dots that confine electrons and holes in all three dimensions, producing discrete energy ...

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 ...

Super quantum dots might be the next big (OK, little) thing in TVs. At least, that's what companies such as TCL want you to believe. While "regular" quantum dots have greatly improved the performance ...

A new technique for growing quantum dots has not only found a new, more efficient way to build a useful type of quantum dot, but also opened up a whole group of novel chemical materials for future ...

Quantum computers have the potential to solve certain calculations exponentially faster than a classic computer could, but more research is desperately needed to make their practical use a reality.

Perovskite quantum dots are considered promising materials for LEDs, photocatalysis, and future quantum light sources. Researchers at LMU Munich have managed to master two major hurdles in working ...

TCL has come under scrutiny this month after testing that claimed to examine three TCL TVs marketed as quantum dot TVs reportedly showed no trace of quantum dots. Quantum dots are semiconductor ...
