Novel applications of ultra high Q optical micro-cavities

Cel

Optical microcavities can store in small volumes for extended amounts of time and finding applications in a number of fundamental and applied studies, which range from nonlinear optics, quantum information to biological sensing and telecommunications.
Recently, rapid progress has been made in increasing the temporal confinement of photons in microcavities (as given by the quality factor, Q). These advances in Q-factor have allowed us for the first time to observe the regime of strong coupling of an atom cavity system, as well as allowing the integration of nonlinear optical oscillators, such as Raman lasers, optical parametric oscillators and optical switches on a silicon chip.
The current research proposal will build on these advances and explore hereto unstudied and interdisciplinary application areas of ultra-high-Q micro-cavities, such as the exploration of radiation pressure induced phenomena, as well as their use in molecular recognition.
The host laboratory is the Max Planck Institute for Quantum Optics (MPQ) in Garching, specifically the Division of Laser Spectroscopy of T.W. Haensch. The applicant is a German Scientist, who has completed his PhD and Postdoc at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) in Pasadena, USA and who has recently been selected to establish a Max Planck Junior Research Group.
The MPQ has arranged all necessary practical arrangements for a successful integration of the researcher and his team.
The present proposal will enlarge his research team and increase the leverage of the existing infrastructure provided by the Max Planck Society, allowing the applicant and his team to carry out highly innovative research in a stimulating and exceptional scientific environment.
The project will also contribute to the successful and lasting integration of the researcher, as well as to attract back a researcher from a top US school. Furthermore, the proposed scientific activities will contribute to a thematic priority area.
