Semiconductor Quantum Light Sources: Fundamentals, Technologies and Device

by Peter Michler (Author), Simone Luca Portalupi (Author) 

The work provides fundamental expertise of quantum optics and photonic quantum technology with particular attention to the generation of non-classical light with semiconductor nanostructures. The book is written by experimentalists for experimentalists at various career stages: physics and engineering students, researchers in quantum optics, industry experts in quantum technology. A didactical structure is followed, having in each chapter overview and summary of the discussed topics, allowing for a quick consultation. The book covers:

Basics of quantum optics

Spectroscopy, time-resolved measurements, quantum optics techniques

Principles of non-classical light emission. Excitation of semiconductor nanostructures and their manipulation

Growth and nanofabrication of devices
