This research achieves a breakthrough by integrating a 2D van der Waals material directly with standard optical fibers to generate entangled photons in the commercial communication band. This development solves critical scalability issues regarding bulk size and coupling loss, paving the way for practical quantum networks compatible with existing infrastructure.
Professor Yeom Dong-ils Team Develops First Quantum Entangled Light Source In Optical Communication Band Based On 2D Material - Fiber Device

A research team led by Professor Dong-il Yeom (Department of Physics, Department of Energy Systems Engineering) at Ajou University, in collaboration with a research team from the Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science, has succeeded in developing a communication-band optical fiber quantum entanglement light source based on 2D van der Waals materials. The newly…
