Nonlinear Quantum Optics Group
Our group explores how we can create strong optical nonlinearity in a medium at light levels of individual photons. Such a quantum nonlinear medium mediates an effective interaction between single photons and thus opens the possibility of manipulating light at its most fundamental level. Our goal is to realize a system that enables full control over the quantum state of few photon light pulses.
Quantum Control of Light is a cool conference taking place in our backyard! You can contact the organizers - Sebastian is one of them - for access via zoom.
We have multiple contributions and hope to see you at our posters or for our talks ✨
See the list of contributions here.
Sebastian is scheduled to give a talk at the Virtual AMO Seminar on the 14th of April, so tune in and learn about what we do in our labs!
