Dear all
Please be informed about the following QSIT Seminar.
With best regards, Ilona Blatter ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Date: Friday June 10, 2011 Time: 14:00 Place: HPF G 6 Host: Atac Imamoglu
Quantum walks and quantum correlations in photonic lattices Yoav Lahini Weizmann Institute of Science, Israel
Quantum walks describe the random walk behavior of a quantum particle. I will describe the implementation of a quantum walk for photons in waveguide lattices. I will then describe a study of Hanbury-Brown Twiss type correlations between two quantum walkers (photon pairs) in periodic lattices, in disordered lattices exhibiting Anderson localization, and in tilted lattices exhibiting Bloch Oscillations.
