Physicists have let light through the plane of the world’s thinnest semiconductor crystal

An international research team has studied how photons travel in the plane of the world’s thinnest semiconductor crystal. The results of the physicists’ work open the way to the creation of monoatomic optical transistors — components for quantum computers, potentially capable of making calculations at the speed of light.
