Final Report Summary - POLAPHEN (Polarization Phenomena in Quantum Microcavities)
Our research will be aimed at theoretical study of the coherent polarization (spin) phenomena in quantum microcavities with embedded quantum wells and dots in order to formulate practical recommendations for design of various spinoptronic devices: all-optical locical gates, optical circuits, polarization filters and sources of entangled photon pairs.
In order to achieve this goal we created the distributed consortium (network) of partner institutions, located in EU and associated countries (Iceland, France, UK) and in Eligible Third Countries (Mexico, Russia) related with others by virtue of already existing collaborative links. In course of the project we suppose to amplify and order these collaborations under central common idea of studying and optimization of mechanisms of polarization manipulation and control in polaritonic systems with a final goal of practical realization of spinoptronic devices. Series of bilateral visits, training workshops and meetings are previewed for this purpose.
