After successful completion of the course, students are able to use modern techniques in quantum optics within an experimental or theoretical project. This can include acquiring expertise in spectroscopy, photon statistics, principles of laser physics, atom-photon interaction, quantum computation, quantum communication, etc. The main goal of the project, its context in the current research field and the used methods can be adequately described (usually in the form of a report).
The students will work on their own on small well defined theoretical or experimental problems in quantum optics. The topics include correlated photons, spectroscopy, photon statistics, principles of laser physics, atom-photon interaction, quantum computation, quantom communication.
Participation in experimental or theoretical research under guidance within a research group.
Usually as a written manuscript or manual.
