The generation, manipulation, storage, and detection of single photons play a central role in
emerging photonic quantum information technology. Individual photons serve as flying …

Semiconductor nanocrystals represent a promising class of solution-processable optical-
gain media that can be manipulated via inexpensive, easily scalable colloidal techniques …

This review seeks to extend the scope of both the experimental and theoreticalwork carried
out since I completed my 1993 review on the electronic, optical, andto a lesser extent, the …

Nanometre-scale semiconductor devices have been envisioned as next-generation
technologies with high integration and functionality. Quantum dots, or the so-called'artificial …

A review is given of theoretical concepts and experimental results on spontaneous formation
of periodically ordered nanometer-scale structures on crystal surfaces. Thermodynamic …

An efficient and intuitive framework for universal quantum computation is presented that
uses pairs of spin-1/2 particles to form logical qubits and a single physical interaction …

Quantum-dot (QD) lasers provide superior lasing characteristics compared to quantum-well
(QW) and QW wire lasers due to their delta like density of states. Record threshold current …

The initial stages of GaAs overgrowth over self-assembled coherently strained InAs quantum
dots (QDs) are studied. For small GaAs coverages (below 5 nm), atomic force microscopy …

In the present review we summarize original results where 1) we have experimentally
discovered a novel class of spontaneously ordered nanostructures, namely equilibrium …
