They enable the study of low-dimensional photonic systems, modified light-matter interaction, e.g. between excitons and photons in all-solid-state semiconductor microcavities, and of many phenomena of quantum optics, including single photon generation, squeezed light, quantum state entanglement, non-local quantum measurements, and, potentially, quantum computation. They are also on the verge of yielding new, high performance optical devices for large-scale industries such as telecommunications and display technology. The lectures in this book are organized in a didactic fashion, with a group of in-depth introductory lectures followed by more specialist contributions detailing particular applications of confined photon systems.Lecture Notes in Physics,0075-8450 ;531Lectures from the Summerschool Held in Cargese, Corsica, 3-15 August 1998LasersPhotonicsQuantum opticsOptical materialsElectronic materialsOptics, Lasers, Photonics, Optical Deviceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31030Quantum Opticshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P24050Optical and Electronic Materialshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z12000Lasers.Photonics.Quantum optics.Optical materials.Electronic materials.Optics, Lasers, Photonics, Optical Devices.Quantum Optics.Optical and Electronic Materials.621.36Benisty Henriedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtGerard Jean-Micheledthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtHoudre Romualdedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtRarity Johnedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtWeisbuch Claudeedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtÉcole Polytechnique.BOOK996466809603316Confined Photon Systems374386UNISA
