If yes, you are ready to encounter the bizarre possibilities of the quantum realm – only enthusiasm and basic knowledge about quantum mechanics and electromagnetism is required! Optoelectronic devices are already being revolutionized by the prospects of quantum technology. Ever smaller and faster components will inevitably reach a level where a collective can outperform individual parts due to emergent quantum effects such as entanglement. This lecture welcomes you to the central concepts of quantum engineering of semiconductors to explore optoelectronic, quantum-optical, and many-body processes, relevant for state-of-the-art experiments and the future of quantum technology. Rough Syllabus: This lecture will provide a pragmatic and brief introduction to solid-state theory, many-body formalism, semiconductor quantum optics, and lightwave electronics to explore pragmatic possibilities for quantum technology. To develop your insights on rational quantum design, the coupling of the quantized light field to electrons is investigated in detail, while the Illustration of dropletons, measured many-body Coulomb interaction of charge carriers is and computed through quantum systematically included. For example, we will analyze (optical) spectroscopy. which quantum effects and quasiparticles can be used in optoelectronics devices from sensors to quasiparticle accelerators. To extend these quantum ideas further, we will follow how including quantum fluctuations of light to laser spectroscopy will transform it to quantum spectroscopy, a new realm where dropleton, entanglement, quantum memory etc.

Decades ago, researchers realized that they don’t have to tackle the many-body problem that arises from the messy interactions of real quantum particles. Instead, a crystal solid can just as accurately be studied and analyzed as an averaged bulk object along with a collec- tion of quasiparticles: disturbances in the solid that act just like well-behaved, nonrel- ativistic particles that barely interact at all. They’re fictitious and easier to work with, and their collective behavior matches that of the real subatomic particles.

  • Pair-Excitation Energetics of Highly Correlated Many-Body States 2
    Pair-excitation energetics of highly correlated many-body states M. Mootz, M. Kira, and S.W. Koch Department of Physics and Material Sciences Center, Philipps-University Marburg, Renthof 5, D-35032 Marburg, Germany E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. A microscopic approach is developed to determine the excitation energetics of highly correlated quasi-particles in optically excited semiconductors based entirely on a pair-correlation function input. For this purpose, the Wannier equation is generalized to compute the energy per excited electron–hole pair of a many-body state probed by a weak pair excitation. The scheme is verified for the degenerate Fermi gas and incoherent excitons. In a certain range of experimentally accessible parameters, a new stable quasi-particle state is predicted which consists of four to six electron– hole pairs forming a liquid droplet of fixed radius. The energetics and pair-correlation features of these ”quantum droplets” are analyzed. PACS numbers: 73.21.Fg,71.10.-w,71.35.-y arXiv:1307.7599v1 [cond-mat.mes-hall] 29 Jul 2013 Pair-excitation energetics of highly correlated many-body states 2 1. Introduction Interactions may bind matter excitations into new stable entities, quasi-particles, that typically have very different properties than the noninteracting constituents. In semiconductors, electrons in the conduction band and vacancies, i.e. holes, in the valence band attract each other via the Coulomb interaction [1]. Therefore, the Coulomb attraction may bind different numbers of electron–hole pairs into a multitude of quasi- particle configurations. The simplest example is an exciton [2, 3] which consists of a Coulomb-bound electron–hole pair and exhibits many analogies to the hydrogen atom [1].

  • Hyperbolic Bloch Equations: Atom-Cluster Kinetics of An
    Hyperbolic Bloch equations: atom-cluster kinetics of an interacting Bose gas M. Kira Department of Physics, Philipps-University Marburg, Renthof 5, D-35032 Marburg, Germany Abstract Experiments with ultracold Bose gases can already produce so strong atom–atom interactions that one can observe intriguing many-body dynamics between the Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) and the normal component. The excitation picture is applied to uniquely express the many-body state uniquely in terms of correlated atom clusters within the normal component alone. Implicit notation formalism is developed to explicitly derive the quantum kinetics of all atom clusters. The clusters are shown to build up sequentially, from smaller to larger ones, which is utilized to nonperturbatively describe the interacting BEC with as few clusters as possi- ble. This yields the hyperbolicBloch equations (HBEs) that not only generalize the Hartree-Fock Bogoliubov approach but also are analogous to the semiconductor Bloch equations (SBEs). This connection is utilized to apply sophisticated many-body techniques of semiconductor quantum optics to BEC investigations. Here, the HBEs are implemented to determine how a strongly in- teracting Bose gas reacts to a fast switching from weak to strong interactions, often referred to as unitarity. The computations for 35Rb demonstrate that molecular states (dimers) depend on atom density, and that the many-body interactions create coherent transients on a 100 µs time scale converting BEC into normal state via quantum depletion. Keywords: Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC), Strong many-body interactions, Cluster-expansion approach, Semiconductors vs. BEC, Excitation-induced effects 1. Introduction Ultrafast spectroscopy[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10] is originally a concept of optics that is based on exciting and probing matter with laser pulses.

  • Super-Capacitor-Like Structure for Fission-Fusion Direct Nuclear Energy Conversion L
    Super-capacitor-like Structure for Fission-Fusion Direct Nuclear Energy Conversion L. Popa-Simil* *LAAS, Los Alamos Academy of Sciences Los Alamos, NM 87544, USA, [email protected] ABSTRACT 2 NOVEL NUCLEAR POWER SOURCES One of the solution for future nuclear power sources Direct nuclear energy conversion system uses nano-hetero- rests in developments in nano-materials technology, that structures that harvest the nuclear particles energy, charging may facilitate direct nuclear energy conversion into electric a structure resembling a super-capacitor, that discharges energy, in compact supercapacitor-like solid-state devices, releasing it as electric energy. which rely on fission, fusion, or nuclear decay, being The nano-structure design uses heterogeneity, in order to generically called nuclear batteries. create a super-capacitor like structure, generically called “CIci”, where “C” is a conductive layer, made of a material with high electron availability, typically, but not limited to a high Z material, and “c” is a low electron availability material, simply a low Z material, or a combination of such. Specific insulators, also present as nano-layers, separate these two conductive layers. Constructive variants use nano-layers, nano-beads or nano- structures like nano-tubes or nano-wires, each having their particularities. The theoretical energy conversion is very high, but there are various constructive issues that limit the total conversion efficiency. This process determines the maximum power density a structure may provide. The use of the fission, fusion or mixed structures (hybrid Fig. 1 – The specific performances of prezent power rectors), provides energy on demand that is much better sources than the isotopic batteries, where these “CIci” structures The interest for the nuclear power sources is due to their might be successfully applied, but the energy depends on high energy/mass ratio, that is by three orders of magnitude the natural decay of the isotopes combination used.

FM transmissions use the frequencies from 88MHz to 108 MHz, satellite communications use 4000-6000 MHz & 11000-14000 MHz generally & so on. Mobile service providers also use the radio waves normally in the range of 900-1800 MHz Spectrum allocation & auction • Two operators cannot use the same frequency in the same region as there will be interference btw each other & both the services will get affected • Same frequencies can be used at two different places separated by sufficient distance so that there will not be any interference. This is called space diversity • The number of voice channels that can be supported depends on the bandwidth of the frequency spectrum allocated. Higher the bandwidth, more the number of channels that can be accommodated • This radio frequency spectrum is a limited resource & different services are allocated different frequencies • So basically the users are allocated a band of radio frequencies for their service & this radio frequency band is called spectrum • The operators use these frequencies to provide service & earn revenue.
