Integration of Quantum Emitters to Photonic Device Could Enable Quantum Circuits
Researchers integrated silicon photonic devices with a solid-state single photon emitter, using a hybrid approach that combines silicon photonic waveguides with quantum dots. The waveguides were used for manipulating light, and the InAs/InP quantum dots were used to generate light efficiently at wavelengths spanning the O-band and C-band.

Next-Gen Image Sensor Delivers High-Quality, Low-Light Imaging
Next-Gen Image Sensor Delivers High-Quality, Low-Light Imaging
A new imaging technology has been developed that can capture and count single photons with resolution as high as one megapixel and as fast as thousands of frames per second. Called the Quanta Image Sensor, or QIS, this technology enables highly sensitive, high-quality, easy-to-manipulate digital imaging as well as computer vision and 3D sensing, even in low-light situations.

Improving Quality of Hologram Memory for Use in Optical Data Storage
A research team has applied magnetic assist recording technology to magnetic-holographic memory, reducing recording energy consumption and achieving non-error data reconstruction. Their work could pave the way for practical application of magnetic-holographic memory for storing large volumes of data at ultrahigh recording density and at ultrahigh speed.

Optofluidic Smart Glass Heats and Cools Efficiently, Inexpensively
New switchable window technology using optofluidic smart glass could someday be used to keep our vehicles, businesses and homes comfortable regardless of the temperature outside. This technology contains a plastic panel with a retroreflective pattern of structures. Rather than reflecting light in all directions, like a mirror, the retroreflective panel reflects light back in the direction it came from.
