Toward quantum chips: Packing single-photon detectors on an optical chip is crucial for quantum-computational circuits

Posted: 09 Jan 2015 07:10 AM PST

A team of researchers has built an array of light detectors sensitive enough to register the arrival of individual light particles, or photons, and mounted them on a silicon optical chip. Such arrays are crucial components of devices that use photons to perform quantum computations.
