Quantum Plasmonics
Mon, Jun 03, 2013 @ 02:00 PM - 03:00 PM
Ming Hsieh Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering
Conferences, Lectures, & Seminars
Speaker: Dr. Mark Tame, Imperial College London
Talk Title: Quantum Plasmonics
Abstract: Quantum plasmonics is a rapidly growing field of research that involves the study of the quantum properties of light and its interaction with matter at the nanoscale. Here, surface plasmons - electromagnetic excitations coupled to electron charge density waves on metal-dielectric interfaces or localized on metallic nanostructures - enable the confinement of light to scales far below that of conventional optics. I will discuss recent progress in the experimental and theoretical investigation of the quantum properties of surface plasmons, their role in controlling light-matter interactions at the quantum level and potential applications in quantum information science.
Biography: Dr Mark Tame is currently based at Imperial College London. He is a theorist and experimentalist in quantum optics and quantum information. His research is focused on developing nanophotonic systems for probing deeper into the foundations of quantum optics and building devices for applications in quantum information science. His current interests in this area lie in the emerging field of âquantum plasmonics’. He gained his PhD in quantum information from Queen’s University Belfast in 2007, where he pioneered the use of small entangled photonic systems (cluster states) for realising quantum computing protocols. He has held research fellowship positions at Osaka University, Queen’s University and most recently at Imperial College.
