This innovation marks progress toward functional quantum chips by generating entangled light particles essential for quantum systems. The GaN-based device offers a wider wavelength range than existing sources, promising more efficient, easily integrated quantum chips for computing and other applications. Researchers foresee GaN enabling all-on-chip quantum photonic circuits. - thequantuminsider.com
