Summary from Kohesio (English machine translation by the source): Quantum technologies, i.e. technologies using basic quantum phenomena such as superposition of states and quantum interlocking, will give new impetus to modern technologies with many promising applications in computers, communications, security, metrology, sensors, and simulation. This has become apparent especially in recent years due to the exceptional development both in materials science at the quantum level, but also in the ways of handling these materials and devices with external fields. That is why many refer to the period we are going through as the period of the “second quantum revolution”, where quantum mechanics beyond the description of phenomena will lead to new “revolutionary” orders. This is a main reason why the European Union will finance quantum technologies with EUR 1 billion in the next decade through the Quantum Technologies Flagship.Semiconductors form the backbone of today’s electronic technology. High technology developed for several years in semiconductors can also be used in quantum technology, and this makes semiconducting nanostructures, particularly semiconducting quantum dots, one of the basic systems studied in quantum technologies. This is also evident from Quantum Technologies Roadmap of the flagship initiative of Quantum Technologies. In quantum dots now, electronic spin is considered to be the most promising representation of qubit, because its dissonance time is much longer than the time of electronic states.For this reason, consonant electronic spin control phenomena in quantum dots by optical methods are included in the topics of high scientific interest in quantum technology over the past fifteen years, and one of the basic systems is quantum dots in Voigt geometry. Many research groups worldwide at the top Universities and Research Centres study these phenomena theoretically and experimentally, while the results of research on this subject are published in high-readable international journals (e.g.Science or Nature group [shortened; the full text is on the Kohesio page]
