Sending Quantum Information Securely from Laser Light to a Quantum Dot
Scientists from Osaka University have demonstrated how information encoded in the circular polarization of a laser beam can be translated into the spin state of an electron in a quantum dot (QD). They used laser light to send quantum information to a QD by altering the spin state of a single electron trapped on the QD.
