contents The Nobel Prizes in Physics (2022) and Chemistry (2023) heralded the recognition of quantum information science and the synthesis of quantum dots, respectively. This acknowledgment has propelled colloidal quantum dots and perovskite nanocrystals to the forefront of quantum technologies. Their distinct emission properties, facilitating the efficient generation of both single photons and photon pairs, render them particularly captivating. Moreover, their adaptability to diverse structures, ranging from traditional electronics to nanopatterned frameworks, underscores their pivotal role in shaping quantum technologies. Despite notable strides in synthesis, certain properties require refinement for enhanced applicability in quantum information, encompassing emission brightness, stability, single photon indistinguishability, and entanglement fidelity of photon pairs. Here we offer an overview of recent achievements in plasmon-exciton quantum emitters based on luminescent semiconductor nanocrystals. Emphasizing the utilization of the light-matter coupling phenomenon, we explore how this interaction enables the manipulation of quantum properties without altering the chemical structure of the emitters. This approach addresses critical aspects for quantum information applications, offering precise control over emission rate, intensity, and energy. The development of these hybrid systems represents a significant stride forward, demonstrating their potential to overcome existing challenges and advance the integration of quantum emitters into cutting-edge quantum technology applications.
