Nonlinear whispering gallery resonators for quantum optical technologies — •Christoph Marquardt — Max-Planck-Institut für die Physik des Lichts, Staudtstr. 2, 91058 Erlangen

In quantum information optical quantum states are an essential building block. Encoding quantum states in the optical field is important for travelling quantum states that can transfer quantum information, as well as in quantum sensing, imaging and photonic quantum computation. Nonlinear optical processes can be used to generate and process special quantum states. Nonlinear whispering gallery resonators provide an efficient platform towards these goals. I will review the current state of the field and discuss possible applications in quantum optical technology.
