Quantum Integrated Photonics (QIP) harnesses quantum-states of light on tiny chips, from generation to processing and eventual detection. Within this context, this thesis explores functional QIP elements resulting from the monolithic integration of semicon ...
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 ...
Two-dimensional (2D) colloidal CdSe nanocrystals (NCs) with precise atomic-scale thickness have attracted intensive attention in recent years due to their optical properties and quantum confinement effects originating from their particular band structure. ...
Quantum dots (QDs) are the result of quantum confinement in the three spatial directions, as such they exhibit remarkable properties, of which the most important is perhaps the absence of a continuum of states. The allowed energetic levels are discrete, si ...
Emerging compositionally engineered complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS)-compatible platforms have been employed for high efficiencies in various on-chip applications, including optical parametric amplification and wavelength conversion. Combinin ...
Colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) are promising components in various optoelectronic and photocatalytic devices; however, the mechanism of energy transport in these materials remains to be further understood. Here, we investigate the distance depe ...
Far-field fluorescence spectromicroscopy of single quantum emitters (SQEs) (single molecules, quantum dots, color centers in crystals) is an actively developing field of modern photonics, which is in widespread demand in various applications in physics, ch ...
The efficiency and peculiarities of processes such as surface adsorption or electron-to-photon energy conversion in organic and inorganic structures are determined by the dynamics at the scale of individual molecules, atoms and charges. The timescales of s ...
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 ...
This thesis is dedicated to the engineering of the emission energy of quantum dots embedded in core-shell GaAs-AlGaAs nanowires. The goal is to redshift the quantum-dot emission energy in resonance with a gas of Rb atoms.
Segregation processes on the nanow ...
