HL 59.1: Invited Talk

Wednesday, March 16, 2011, 14:30–15:00, TRE Ma

Quantum Optics on Photonic Chips — •Dirk Englund¹, Brendan Shields², Hongkun Park², Mikhail Lukin², Kelley Rivoire³, Jelena Vuckovic³, and Fariba Hatami⁴ — ¹Columbia University — ²Harvard University — ³Stanford University — ⁴Humboldt University

Nanoscale optical structures present a path towards controlling the interaction of photons with single emitters in solids, such as semiconductor quantum dots or color centers. I will describe how this controlled light matter interaction may enable the construction of basic components for quantum information science. I will discuss recent work on cavity-enhanced generation of single photons; nonlinear optical interactions at the single photon level; and some recent work towards cavity-enhanced optical interactions with long-lived spin states in the diamond nitrogen vacancy center.
