The course will introduce the students to advanced topics in quantum optics, especially in solid-state nanophotonic systems. It provides a detailed description of the quantum treatment of light-matter interaction and an introduction to relevant research topics such as quantum electrodynamics with quantum dots and photonic quantum information processing.
The interaction between photons, phonons and artificial atoms such as quantum dots will be the core topic of the course. Other topics include:
The aim of the course is to bring the students at a level where they are capable of comprehending modern research literature on quantum optics and quantum nanophotonics.
The course will provide the following knowledge and skills:
