Description

This course explores the physical principles and applications of photonics in nanosystems. It first describes the optical properties of bulk materials, before going on to discuss photonics of low-dimensional semiconductors, including photonic crystals, nanocrystals and single quantum emitters. It then describes in detail how photonic techniques are used to characterize various low-dimensional structures and devices, focusing on techniques such as photoluminescence, lifetime measurements and Raman spectroscopy.
