Ultrafast Quantum Optoelectronics

Objective



The programme involves close collaboration between experimental and Ultrafast quantum optoelectronics is one of the most exciting and rapidly developing fields in optics and condensed matter physics research, with far theoretical teams in ultrafast optical spectroscopy, high-speed device physics and materials technology. Young researchers who join experimental reaching fundamental and technological significance. It extends beyond the domain of classical optical phenomena and optoelectronics, into the realm groups will have full access to state-of-the-art pulsed laser and of quantum optics and quantum kinetics. One of the important ultimate goals time-resolved optical spectroscopy facilities, and will receive training in of this research is the control and manipulation of both electrons and picosecond and femtosecond optical techniques, ultrafast coherence and photons in ultrasmall (nanometre) structures. The relevant physical quantum optics techniques. Training will be provided in Monte Carlo and phenomena are ultrafast, occurring on the timescale <1012s, and hence semiconductor Bloch equation techniques for simulations of dynamics in nanostructures There will be opportunities to interact and visit with there is a fundamental requirement to acquire a detailed understanding of industrial research teams, and to participate at the annual Network light-matter and carrier-carrier interactions in nanostructures on this timescale.
Research Workshops Euoroconference on ultrafast processes in solids. The major theme of the programme is the investigation of coherent and incoherent nonequilibrium dynamical processes in nanostructures, and the coherent control of material properties on a femtosecond timescale. The project will study the quantum, and ultimately non-Markovian kinetics of interacting many-body systems coupled by Coulomb interaction. Attention will focus on semiconductor materials, but will extend to metallic and superconducting nanostructures, where the important issue of carrier correlation will be addressed. The programme includes investigatiosn of ultrafast quantum and nonlinear opticla phenomena in important device structures, and novel high-speed quantum-optoelectronic applications. .
