Progress in quantum-dot single photon sources for quantum information technologies: A broad spectrum overview 论文

摘要

Semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) of various material systems are being heavily researched for the development of solid state single photon emitters, which are required for optical quantum computing and related technologies such as quantum key distribution and quantum metrology. In this review article, we give a broad spectrum overview of the QD-based single photon emitters developed to date, from the telecommunication bands in the IR to the deep UV.
