Nachwuchstagung - Nonlinear Spectroscopy Meets Quantum Optics

Nonlinear Spectroscopy meets

Quantum Optics

This workshop aims to stimulate interdisciplinary exchange between experts in quantum optics and in nonlinear spectroscopy of complex systems. The controlled assembly of synthetic quantum systems requires the development of novel tools for the efficient and scalable characterization of nonequilibrium many-body dynamics, where expertise from nonlinear spectroscopy is expected to be helpful. Conversely, the use of quantum properties of light for spectroscopic applications stands to provide new tools for the interrogation of complex quantum systems ranging from solid state devices to molecular aggregates.

This workshop will discuss quantum optical sample systems for nonlinear spectroscopy which include (but are not limited to) ultracold atoms in optical lattices, Rydberg atoms, and trapped ions. Furthermore, recent methods for light manipulation with potential applications for nonlinear spectroscopy will be discussed, including entangled photon spectroscopy and optical nano-fields.

To register, please send an email to Anna Blattner. For a poster contribution, please also provide title and abstract. The participation fee is 100 EUR. Deadline for registration is September 15, 2014.
