Excitons in monolayer semiconductors emerged as a unique nanoscale platform in this context, offering strong light–matter coupling, spin–valley locking and exceptional tunability. Crucially, they allow electrical switching of their optical response due to efficient interactions of excitonic emitters with free charge carriers, forming new quasiparticles known as trions and Fermi polarons. However, there are major limitations to how fast the light emission of these states can be tuned, restricting the majority of applications to an essentially static regime. Here we demonstrate switching of excitonic light emitters in monolayer semiconductors on ultrafast picosecond time scales by applying short pulses in the terahertz spectral range following optical injection. The process is based on a rapid conversion of trions to excitons by absorption of terahertz photons inducing photodetachment. Monitoring time-resolved emission dynamics in optical-pump/terahertz-push experiments, we achieve the required resonance conditions as well as demonstrate tunability of the process with delay time and terahertz pulse power. Our results introduce a versatile experimental tool for fundamental research of light-emitting excitations of composite Bose–Fermi mixtures and open up pathways towards technological developments of new types of nanophotonic device based on atomically thin materials.","PeriodicalId":18926,"journal":{"name":"Nature Photonics","volume":"34 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":35.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142276888","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here we find that the amorphous phases of self-assembling molecules (SAMs) can realize a more homogeneous perovskite growth. Hyperspectral analysis confirms a narrower and blueshifted photoluminescence peak distribution in perovskite/amorphous SAMs. Additionally, fluence-dependent time-resolved photoluminescence reveals a reduced trap-assisted recombination rate of 0.5 × 106 s−1 in amorphous-SAM-based perovskite films. This improvement translates to p–i–n structured perovskite solar cells achieving an efficiency of 25.20% (certified at 24.35%) over a one-square-centimetre area. These cells maintain nearly 100% efficiency after 600 h of 1-sun maximum power point tracking under the ISOS-L-1 protocol, and retain 90% of their initial efficiency after 1,000 h, as evaluated by the ISOS-T-2 protocol.","PeriodicalId":18926,"journal":{"name":"Nature Photonics","volume":"64 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":35.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142236187","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A promising route to scalability is photonic-measurement-based quantum computation, where single-qubit measurements on large cluster states, together with feedforward steps, enable fault-tolerant quantum computation; however, generating large cluster states at high rates is notoriously difficult as detection probabilities drop exponentially with the number of photons comprising the state. We tackle this challenge by encoding multiple qubits on each photon through high-dimensional spatial encoding, generating cluster states with over nine qubits at a rate of 100 Hz. We also demonstrate that high-dimensional encoding substantially reduces the computation duration by enabling instantaneous feedforward between qubits encoded in the same photon. Our findings pave the way for resource-efficient measurement-based quantum computation using high-dimensional entanglement. By entangling multiple qudits within the Hilbert space of each photon, cluster states with up to 9.28 qubits are generated at a rate of 100 Hz. The high-dimensional encoding substantially reduces the computation duration compared to the standard two-dimensional encoding.","PeriodicalId":18926,"journal":{"name":"Nature Photonics","volume":"18 11","pages":"1218-1224"},"PeriodicalIF":32.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142234510","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our work introduces a dual-wavelength laser design that utilizes stimulated Brillouin scattering in an optical fibre cavity to effectively generate two highly coherent optical Stokes waves with inherently mitigated differential phase noise. To guarantee robust operation, the Stokes waves are optically injected into their respective pump lasers, which also serves to greatly improve the resulting coherence. The frequency difference between the two wavelengths is converted into THz waves through a uni-travelling-carrier photodiode. This innovative design facilitates the generation of THz waves with phase noise levels of less than –100 dBc Hz–1, translating to timing noise below 10 as Hz–1/2 at 10 kHz Fourier frequency, over a carrier frequency range from 300 GHz to 3 THz. This development in phase noise reduction establishes a new benchmark in the spectral purity of tunable THz sources. Such advances are pivotal for applications to move beyond oscillator constraints.","PeriodicalId":18926,"journal":{"name":"Nature Photonics","volume":"383 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":35.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142175035","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the low molar extinction coefficient of conventional lanthanide sensitizers limits the brightness of lanthanide near-infrared nanoparticles for applications in low-power excitation scenarios. Here we introduce Na3CrF6, a new crystalline nanoparticle that serves as both sensitizer and host for high-brightness near-infrared emission from lanthanide activators (Er3+, Tm3+, Yb3+ or Nd3+). We demonstrate an increase in brightness of up to 370 times compared with the most intense conventional lanthanide-sensitized nanoparticles. This discovery is also validated for other lanthanide-doped nanoparticles sensitized with low-cost transition metals (Mn2+ or Ni2+). Our transition metal-based nanoparticles represent a powerful toolbox to enable high signal-to-noise-ratio labelling and imaging with low-power excitation sources such as white light-emitting diode or persistent luminescence materials.
