  2. 1. Measurement Back-Action and Photon Detection in Microwave Quantum Optics

    Author : Anton Frisk Kockum; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Parity Measurement; Quantum Measurement; Quantum Optics; Quantum Stochastic Calculus; Circuit QED; Photodetection; Transmon; Dephasing;

    Abstract : In quantum optics, the interaction between atoms and photons is studied. In recent years, microwave quantum optics with superconducting circuits has emerged as an important tool for fundamental quantum optics experiments, and also as a promising way for implementing quantum computation.

  4. 2. Spatiotemporal carrier dynamics in graphene

    Author : Roland Jago; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; spatiotemporal dynamics; density matrix formalism; graphene; relaxation dynamics; carrier multiplication; Bloch equations; photoconduction effect; bolometric effect;

    Abstract : Graphene as an atomically thin material exhibits remarkable optical and electronic properties that suggest its technological application in novel optoelectronic devices, such as graphene-based photodetectors and lasers. To understand the properties of such devices on a microscopic level, we study the interplay of optical excitation, carrier-carrier, carrier-phonon, and carrierphoton scattering as well as diffusion processes.

  5. 3. Nanophotonics in absorbing III-V nanowire arrays

    Author : Nicklas Anttu; Fasta tillståndets fysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; III-V semiconductor materials; Nanophotonics; nanowires; electromagnetic modeling; Fysicumarkivet A:2013:Anttu;

    Abstract : We have studied the interaction of light with an array of vertically oriented III-V semiconductor nanowires both theoretically and experimentally. For the theoretical studies, electromagnetic modeling has been employed. READ MORE

  6. 4. Charge Separation on Localized Surface Plasmon and Hot Carrier Transfer to Semiconductors

    Author : Yocefu Hattori; Jacinto Sá; Stephan Link; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Plasmonics; hot carrier; metal nanoparticles; semiconductors; ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy; Chemistry with specialization in Physical Chemistry; Kemi med inriktning mot fysikalisk kemi;

    Abstract : The relatively recent discovery that plasmonic nanoparticles generate energetic electron-hole pairs known as hot carriers has been the source of interest from many scientific groups. The capability to extract these short-lived hot carriers from metal nanoparticles (NPs) might potentially lead to applications in solar cells, photodetection, and photocatalysis. READ MORE

  7. 5. Laser Doppler Perfusion Monitoring and Imaging especially as regards testing for sympathetic nerve function

    Author : Carolin Freccero; Kirurgi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Physiology; wavelength; sympathetic vasodilatation; sympathetic vasoconstriction; sympathetic nerve function; parasympathetic nerve function; laser Doppler perfusion imaging; laser Doppler perfusion monitoring; finger skin blood flow; fibre separation; contralateral cooling; Concentration; Fysiologi; Cardiovascular system; Kardiovaskulära systemet; Diagnostik; Diagnostics;

    Abstract : The operating principle of all laser Doppler methods is based on the fact that incident photons shift in wavelength when interacting with moving blood cells passing through the microvascular network. After photodetection and further signal processing, the recorded parameter can be considered an arbitrary measure of tissue blood flow, and this is referred to as ?perfusion?. READ MORE
