Dyadic Green Functions and their applications in Classical and Quantum Nanophotonics
(2012-04-26)Research in solid-state nanophotonics and quantum optics has been recently pushing the limits in semiconductor microcavity design. High quality microcavities that confine light into small volumes are now able to drastically ... -
Investigating electromechanical coupling between membrane crystal materials and superconducting microwave resonators
This work studies the use of two-dimensional (2D) crystal materials as mechanical elements in an electromechanical resonant system. 2D materials form crystals that have strong in-plane bonds but weak out-of-plane bonds, ... -
Quantum Nonlinear Optics in Lossy Coupled-Cavities in Photonic Crystal Slabs
(2015-06-02)A general formalism is developed that can be used to obtain photon dynamics in coupled-cavity system in leaky photonic crystal slabs. This is accomplished using a non-Hermitian projection operator, where the coupled-cavity ... -
Quantum Optics and the Quantum Jump Technique for Lossy and Non-Orthogonal Systems
(2013-09-28)In this thesis I develop a formalism for analyzing quantum optics in photonic crystal slab cavities which may be coupled, lossy, and non-orthogonal. Using a tight-binding approximation I find classical coupled-cavity ... -
Quantum Trajectory Theory of Open Cavity-QED Systems with a Time Delayed Coherent Optical Feedback
The emergence of integrated (or solid state) photonic systems, including quantum dots, waveguides, and cavities, has provided a base to harness quantum optic phenomena for use in current and future quantum technologies. ... -
Theory and applications of light-matter interactions in quantum dot nanowire photonic crystal systems
(2015-08-25)Photonic crystal slabs coupled with quantum dipole emitters allow one to control quantum light-matter interactions and are a promising platform for quantum information science technologies; however their development has ... -
Theory and Modelling of Pulse-Driven Quantum Dots in Nanophotonic Structures
Quantum dots (QDs) integrated in nanophotonic environments provide an excellent platform for quantum information technologies and engineerable light-matter interactions. One application is a solid-state single photon source ...
