Physicists Develop a Novel Concept for Generating Tailored Single Photons

Physicists from Paderborn University have developed a novel concept for generating individual photons – tiny particles of light that make up electromagnetic radiation – with tailored properties, the controlled manipulation of which is of fundamental importance for photonic quantum technologies. The findings have now been published in scientific journal Nature Communications.
