Quantum optics studies how photons interact with other forms of matter, the understanding of which was crucial for the development of quantum mechanics as a whole. Starting from the photoelectric effect, the quantum property of light has led to the develop ...
An enduring challenge in constructing mechanical-oscillator-based hybrid quantum systems is to ensure engineered coupling to an auxiliary degree of freedom and maintain good mechanical isolation from the environment, that is, low quantum decoherence, consi ...
The exploration of open quantum many-body systems -systems of microscopic size exhibiting quantum coherence and interacting with their surrounding- has emerged as a key research area over the last years. The recent advances in controlling and preserving qu ...
Recent years have seen spectacular developments in the domain of nano-optics.
Alongside the well-known techniques of super-resolution microscopy progress
in nanofabrication has enabled important improvements in the fields
of optical imaging and spectros ...
With the development of quantum optics, photon correlations acquired a prominent role as a tool to test our understanding of physics, and played a key role in verifying the validity of quantum mechanics. The spatial and temporal correlations in a light fie ...
A primary challenge in quantum science and technology is to isolate the fragile quantum states from their environment in order to prevent the irreversible leakage of energy and information which causes decoherence. In the late 1990s, however, a new paradig ...
Time-correlated Stokes-anti-Stokes (SaS) scattering has been studied in different transparent media, more frequently in diamond. While the nonclassical nature of the SaS scattered photons has been well established, the presence of entanglement in this spon ...
Irradiation of a molecular system by an intense laser field can trigger dynamics of both electronic and nuclear subsystems. The lighter electrons usually move on much faster, attosecond timescale but the slow nuclear rearrangement damps ultrafast electroni ...
While quantum mechanics imposes a fundamental limit on the precision of interferometric measurementsof mechanical motion due to measurement backaction, the nonlinear nature of the coupling also leads toparametric instabilities that place practical limits o ...
Quantum mechanics did not only deeply transform our world view down to a philosophical level, it is also expected to be key ingredient of future so-called quantum technologies. Indeed, quantum properties of matter such as isolated single particles or entan ...
