Researchers at Cork 's Tyndall Institute have found a way to enable quantum dot LEDs to produce entangled photons , which can be placed where needed , such as on semiconductor boards . Our method allows you to direct the position of these sources of entangled photons,” he said. This will enable the building of quantum computing at scale much sooner than expected , as the necessary materials are readily accessible . While not the first to produce entangled photons in LEDs , the researchers built a scalar array using commercially available materials and conventional silicon chip technology .
