  abstract     = {{<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Semiconductor quantum dots are excellent candidates for ultrafast coherent manipulation of qubits by laser pulses on picosecond timescales or even faster. In inhomogeneous ensembles a macroscopic optical polarization decays rapidly due to dephasing, which, however, is reversible in photon echoes carrying complete information about the coherent ensemble dynamics. Control of the echo emission time is mandatory for applications. Here, we propose a concept to reach this goal. In a two-pulse photon echo sequence, we apply an additional resonant control pulse with multiple of 2<jats:italic>π</jats:italic> area. Depending on its arrival time, the control slows down dephasing or rephasing of the exciton ensemble during its action. We demonstrate for self-assembled (In,Ga)As quantum dots that the photon echo emission time can be retarded or advanced by up to 5 ps relative to its nominal appearance time without control. This versatile protocol may be used to obtain significantly longer temporal shifts for suitably tailored control pulses.</jats:p>}},

Artificial opal films made of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) spheres are utilized as template. The opal films are deposited via sedimentation facilitated by ultrasonication, and then impregnated by indium nitrate solution, which is thermally converted to In2O3 after drying. The quality of the resulting inverse opal film depends on many parameters; in this study the water content of the indium nitrate/PMMA composite after drying is investigated. Comparison of the reflectance spectra recorded by vis-spectroscopy with simulated data shows a good agreement between the peak position and calculated stop band positions for the inverse opals. This synthesis is less complex and highly efficient compared to most other techniques and is suitable for use in many applications.}},

These nonlinear optical signatures decay on picosecond time scales governed by carrier thermalization and recombination. The temporal and spectral dependence indicate the dynamical optical response as arising from excitation-induced dephasing and perturbed free induction decay.

  abstract     = {{Parametric down-conversion (PDC) forms one of the basic building blocks for quantum optical experiments. However, the intrinsic multimode spectral-temporal structure of pulsed PDC often poses a severe hindrance for the direct implementation of the heralding of pure single-photon states or, for example, continuous-variable entanglement distillation experiments. To get rid of multimode effects narrowband frequency filtering is frequently applied to achieve a single-mode behavior. A rigorous theoretical description to accurately describe the effects of filtering on PDC, however, is still missing. To date, the theoretical models of filtered PDC are rooted in the discrete-variable domain and only account for filtering in the low-gain regime, where only a few photon pairs are emitted at any single point in time. In this paper we extend these theoretical descriptions and put forward a simple model, which is able to accurately describe the effects of filtering on PDC in the continuous-variable domain. This developed straightforward theoretical framework enables us to accurately quantify the tradeoff between suppression of higher-order modes, reduced purity, and lowered Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen entanglement, when narrowband filters are applied to multimode type-II PDC.}},

counterpart to conventional radio antennas, they are able to increase optical felds in sub-wavelength volumes,
to enhance excitation and emission of quantum emitters or to direct light, radiated by quantum emitters. The
directed emission of these antennas has been mainly pursued by surface plasmon based devices, e.g. Yagi-Uda
like antennas, which are rather complicated due to the coupling of several metallic particles. Also, like all metallic
structures in optical or infrared regime, these devices are very sensitive to fabrication tolerances and are affected
by strong losses. It has been shown recently, that such directed emission can be accomplished by dielectric
materials as well.
In this paper we present an optimization of nanoscopic antennas in the near infrared regime starting from a
metallic Yagi-Uda structure. The optimization is done via a particle-swarm algorithm, using full time domain
finite integration simulations to obtain the characteristics of the investigated structure, also taking into account
substrates. Furthermore we present a dielectric antenna, which performs even better, due to the lack of losses
by an appropriate choice of the dielectric material. These antennas are robust concerning fabrication tolerances
and can be realized with different materials for both the antenna and the substrate, without using high index
materials.}},

High harmonic generation is investigated for a two-band model of a semiconductor nanostructure. Similar to an atomic two-level system, the semiconductor emits high harmonic radiation. We show how one can specifically enhance the emission for a given frequency by applying a non-trivially shaped laser pulse. Therefore, the semiconductor Bloch equations including the interband and additionally the intraband dynamics are solved numerically and the spectral shape of the input pulse is computed via an optimization algorithm. It is demonstrated that desired emission frequencies can be favored even though the overall input power is kept constant. We also suggest special metallic nano geometries to achieve enhanced localized optical fields. They are found by geometric optimization.}},
