Nir Rotenberg and a short description of his research interests

Course description: This short course will focus on coherent quantum light-matter interactions, specifically for a quantum emitter coupled to a photonic waveguide. The first lecture will cover the basic theory of this system, developing a model of the interaction, scattering, and transmission from first principles. In the second lesson, this will be extended to cover both the photon statistics of these interactions and the basics of chiral quantum optics. The final lecture will focus on examples and applications, specifically highlighting recent work with semiconductor quantum dots and discrete variable quantum photonic neural networks.
