‘Egg Carton’ Quantum Dot Array could lead to Ultralow Power Devices

An illustration of the egg crate electronic structure, shown between two mirrors so that the red laser light resonates. The polaritons, trapped in the pockets, are represented by the sum of their parts: a green exciton, with electron and hole shown inside, attached to a red lightwave. Even with just a few excitons in the wells, the energy required to add a new one begins to jump

A new path toward sending and receiving information with single photons of light has been discovered by an international team of researchers led by the University of Michigan...
