Semi Material Used for Secure Quantum Communications
MOSCOW, March 26, 2018 — Use of single photons as carriers for quantum bits could enable reliable security during quantum data transmission. Researchers have found that an existing material could be used to build a system for the reliable generation of single photons under ambient conditions. A research team from Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (MIPT) showed how a single-photon emitting diode based on silicon carbide (SiC), a semiconductor material used in optoelectronics, could be used to emit up to several
