Quantum dots
- Focus issue:
- June 2013 Volume 12, No 6
The properties of semiconductor quantum dots can now be controlled down to the level of single electrons and spins. In this focus issue we explore how these solid-state 'artificial atoms' have inspired scientists to look at them as possible building blocks for realizations of quantum computers.
