Dark States Illuminate Brighter Single-Photon Sources
![Individual quantum dots exhibiting single-photon blinking at room temperature demonstrate distinct photoluminescence parameters-characterized by varied decay curves and second-order correlation functions [latex]g^{(2)}(\tau)[/latex]-across bright, intermediate, and dark states, revealing a correlation between average lifetime and blinking behavior across a population of nine dots.](https://arxiv.org/html/2602.11385v1/Figure3_21012026.jpeg)
