Abstract

This article presents recent optoelectronics research at Auckland University. The Optoelectronics research group is currently expanding its interests into the areas of biophotonics taking advantage of a long history of biophysics research using laser light scattering, combined with its expertise in optical fibre applications. In addition the Optoelectronics research group has collaborative research projects with the experimental and theoretical quantum and atom optics research groups within the Physics Department. The combined resources of these groups is considerable, dominating as they do the research interests of the Department.

Quantum and Optoelectronic Devices, Circuits and Systems

Lamata, Lucas

The fields of quantum electronics (e.g., quantum dots and superconducting circuits) and optoelectronics have garnered much interest in the past few years. They deal with quantum and optical platforms in combination with electronic and condensed matter systems, which may serve as building blocks for a plethora of applications in quantum computing and optical technology. In this reprint, we reprint the articles of the Special Issue "Quantum and Optoelectronic Devices, Circuits and Systems", published in Electronics (MDPI).

Reports on Subfields of Physics: Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics

Bruce M. Schechter

Atomic, molecular and optical physics encompasses a broad range of theoretical and experimental research on matter at the atomic and molecular level and on light. In the United States it is pursued by over 300 small groups in university, national and industrial laboratories. Advances in this branch of physics not only add to our understanding of the basic laws of physics but lead to new instruments and techniques vital to other areas of science, to industry and to national programs. In their report the Panel on Atomic, Molecular and Optical physics has proposed a program of research initiatives intended to support scientific innovation and to provide an environment for rapid scientific advance. But the panel is quick to point out that in attempting to predict the most promising avenues for scientific advancement one is likely to miss whole new boulevards. The panel admits that had it met ten years ago it would have failed to mention or would have seriously underestimated many important developments: laser cooling of atoms and ions, low-energy highly charged ions, transient molecular states, Rydberg atoms, molecular clusters, four-wave mixing, phase conjugation, ultrasensitive detection. “Nevertheless,” writes the panel, “we believe that the program of research initiatives represents a realistic basis for scientific advance in the near future.” The research initiatives include:

Laser Stimulated Scattering and Multiphoton Excitation

Guang S. He

Abstract Laser Stimulated Scattering and Multiphoton Excitation is the first book that comprehensively covers the following three major areas: (1) Quantum electrodynamic theory of stimulated scattering and multiphoton excitation processes; (2) Various stimulated scattering effects, including the early discovered stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) and stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS), the later investigated stimulated Kerr scattering (SKS), and the recently developed stimulated Rayleigh–Bragg scattering (SRBS) and stimulated Mie scattering (SMS); (3) Multiphoton excitation-based nonlinear optical effects, photoelectric effects, atomic and molecular ionization effects, and molecular dissociation effects. Each chapter covers: (i) the concept and mechanism description, (ii) the necessary theoretical formulation, (iii) the experimental research achievements, and (iv) the scientific/technological applications. Laser Stimulated Scattering and Multiphoton Excitation is useful and suitable for academics, experts, and students working or interested in the areas of nonlinear optics, nonlinear photonics, laser spectroscopy, physical optics, physical chemistry, and optoelectronic engineering.

Application framework for high security requirements in R&D environments based on quantum cryptography

Christian Kollmitzer, Oliver Maurhart, Stefan Schauer +1 more

Companies running research and development (R&D) departments invest considerable effort into the protection of results and security of communication channels. In cases where particular expertise is unavailable within the company, R&D may be partially outsourced to external specialists being universities or independent research centers. In any such case where highly valuable data is to be exchanged between departments of a company or a university, quantum cryptography offers a convenient way to protect the investment and revenue tied to the research. Upon recent results within the EU-project SECOQC, we present an application framework that is suitable for meeting R&D security requirements. We draw from the latest experimental results, demonstrating the feasibility and efficiency of using quantum cryptography in that context.
