The semiconductor used here is zinc oxide (zincite), which is obtained by taking a strip of zinc and heating it with a blow torch. This creates spots of zinc oxide on the strip, which can then be ...
However, zinc oxide, a material known for its strong electron correlation and excellent spin quantum coherence, had not yet been explored for use in electrically defined quantum dots, i.e., those ...
Researchers have successfully created electrically defined quantum dots in zinc oxide (ZnO) heterostructures, marking a significant milestone in the development of quantum technologies. Details of ...
