Quantum Emitters: Beyond Crystal Clear to Single-Photon Pure

Nanoscale luminescence quenching occurs when a focused ion beam is irradiated. By selectively quenching the uncorrelated light, one can increase the single-photon purity from the quantum emitter without optical degradation and structural destruction

A research team has developed a technique that can isolate the desired quality emitter by reducing the noise surrounding the target with what they have dubbed a ‘nanoscale focus pinspot.’

Photons – fundamental particles of light – are carrying these words to your eyes via the light from your computer screen or phone. Photons play a key role in the next-generation quantum information technology, such as quantum computing and communications...
