Shining potential of missing atoms
Single-atom vacancies in atomically thin insulators created in ultra-high vacuum
15-Jun-2023 -
Single photons have applications in quantum computation, information networks, and sensors, and these can be emitted by defects in the atomically thin insulator hexagonal boron nitride (hBN). Missing nitrogen atoms have been suggested to be the atomic structure responsible for this activity, but ...
