Over the past few decades, a new branch of plasma research, nanomaterial (NM) synthesis
through plasma–liquid interactions (PLIs), has been develo** rapidly, mainly due to the …

Lasers and LEDs have a statistical distribution in the number of photons emitted within a
given time interval. Applications exploiting the quantum properties of light require sources …

With the recent advancement of nanomaterials and nanostructured materials, the point-of-
care biosensor devices have shown a potential growth to revolutionize the future …

Most previous texts on quantum optics have been written primarily for the graduate student
market at PhD level and above. Quantum optics: an introduction aims to introduce a wide …

The transmission and processing of signals carried by optical beams rather than by
electrical currents or radio waves has been a topic of great interest ever since the early …

The concept of the photon, central to Einstein's explanation of the photoelectric effect, is
exactly 100 years old. Yet, while photons have been detected individually for more than 50 …

We observe large spontaneous emission rate modification of individual InAs quantum dots
(QDs) in a 2D photonic crystal with a modified, high-Q single-defect cavity. Compared to …

Single-photon emitters in monolayer WSe2 are created at the nanoscale gap between two
single-crystalline gold nanorods. The atomically thin semiconductor conforms to the metal …

We report on the observation of the strong-coupling regime between the excitonic transition
of a single GaAs quantum dot and a discrete optical mode of a microdisk microcavity …

An optical quantum computer, powerful enough to solve problems so far intractable using
conventional digital logic, requires a large number of entangled photons,. At present …
