  abstract     = {{Coherent physics and applications of exciton qubits in electric fi eld tunable quantum dot structures are our focus. Excitations with picosecond (ps) laser pulses result in qubit rotations. Using state projection by tunnelling the readout can be performed in quantitative way. As a function of electric fi eld induced detuning Ramsey fringes of a single exciton qubit can be observed and controlled for double pulse excitation. Therefore it is possible to demonstrate voltage controlled qubit manipulations within a wide range of pulse delays. Using fast electric signals, phase-locked to ps-laser pulses, the coherent control of an exciton qubit can be obtained by electric interaction. Such voltage controlled qubit manipulations seem to be essential for new types of optoelectronic quantum gates and novel applications in the fi eld of coherent optoelectronics.}},

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.}},
