Theory of quantum control of semiconductor quantum dots in complex environments — Andreas Knorr, •Julia Kabuß, Alexander Carmele, Sverre Theuerholz, and Marten Richter — Institut für Theoretische Physik, Technische Universität Berlin

This talk is focused on the control of the statistics of coupled quantum fields (electrons, phonons and photons) in nanostructured materials, composed of quantum dots, cavities and metal nanoparticles. Addressing the full quantum statistics of the fields within a microscopic theory we discuss:
- the phonon statistics in acoustic cavities externally driven by a Raman process,
- the manipulation of the photon statistics in optical cavities by feedback control, and
- the Förster transfer processes between quantum dots in the presence of metal nanoparticles and the disentanglement of intrinsic interaction by local spectroscopy.
