WÜRZBURG, Germany, Jan. 30, 2012 — A specially designed organic light-emitting diode structure that emits single photons has been fabricated that could make data transmission more secure. Light sources that emit single particles of light are the basic requirement for the development of new encryption technologies, said Jens Pflaum, a professor at the Institute of Physics of the University of Würzburg. He was joined in the device’s development by physicists from the universities of Stuttgart and Ulm. The innovative component with which single photons can be produced at room temperature (red arrow) is...Read full article
