Abstract
The integration of quantum dots (QDs) into semiconductor devices has emerged as a promising approach to enhance their performance and functionality. QDs are nanoscale crystals that exhibit unique optical and electronic properties, making them an attractive material for a wide range of applications. In this paper, we investigate the use of QDs in enhancing the performance of semiconductors and their role in quantum computing.Quantum dots (QDs), semiconductor nanocrystals with quantum confinement effects, have emerged as pivotal materials in advancing both semiconductor technology and quantum computing. This paper explores the dual role of quantum dots in enhancing semiconductor performance and their potential in quantum computing applications. In semiconductor devices, quantum dots offer remarkable improvements in optical and electronic properties, including size-tunable emission spectra, high photostability, and broad absorption ranges. These attributes significantly enhance the performance of devices such as light-emitting diodes, solar cells, and photodetectors. Quantum dots enable high-efficiency light emission and improved energy conversion, leading to innovations in display technologies and renewable energy sources.In the realm of quantum computing, quantum dots are investigated as viable qubit candidates due to their discrete energy levels and precise tunability. They facilitate the development of both charge-based and spin-based qubits, offering advantages in terms of coherence times and operational fidelity. Recent advancements in quantum dot manipulation and integration have shown promise in overcoming key challenges related to qubit initialization, readout, and entanglement. This paper reviews the latest research on quantum dots in semiconductor applications and their transformative potential in quantum computing. It highlights ongoing efforts to address technical hurdles and presents a forward-looking perspective on the role of quantum dots in shaping the future of electronics and computing technologies.
