    Invited Speaker / Conférencier invité
    Optical processes such as spontaneous/stimulated emission and absorption may occur with surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) as they interact with an optical gain medium, ultimately leading to SPP amplification and oscillation (lasing) under the right circumstances. Although SPP amplifiers and lasers have been topics of investigation for about three decades, demonstrations of both have only...

    Quantum control of molecular states is important in that it can be used to manipulate the behaviour of quantum systems. In particular, noble-metal nanoparticles can be used to enhance state decay rates in proximate quantum systems and modify local electromagnetic fields. This enhancement allows us to achieve a high level of control over the quantum dynamics of an atomic system. We use the...

  3. 280. Resonant Nanoantennas for Long-Wavelength Spectroscopy
    Prof. Luca Razzari (INRS-EMT)

    Invited Speaker / Conférencier invité
    Optical nanoantennas are nano-fabricated devices able to convert free-space optical radiation into localized energy. Due to this, they can be used to enhance the electromagnetic field and to localize it on a scale well beyond the diffraction limit. Nanoantennas have thus become key elements for single-molecule spectroscopy, nano-imaging and extreme nonlinear optics [1-3]. Our aim is to exploit...

  4. 367. Toward universal relativistic quantum computing

    We harness general relativistic effects to gain quantum control on a stationary qubit in an optical cavity by controlling the non-inertial motion of a different probe atom. Furthermore, we show that by considering relativistic trajectories of the probe, we enhance the fidelity of the quantum control.
