This work is focused on the classical theory of the electromagnetic (EM) near field in the vicinity of matter. The EM near field is rather dependent on Maxwell’s boundary conditions (MBCs). In a low symmetric system the MBCs cause difficulty in our understanding of the physics and in numerical calculations. In order to overcome this difficulty we develop two novel formulations, namely a boundary scattering...
The dynamic behavior of excitons in semiconductors has become an attractive field of research since it was found to play an important role in the optical transitions near the fundamental absorption edge of semiconductors [1–3]. One of the most interesting phenomena related to excitons is represented by the excitonic polaritons, which are coherent quasiparticles consisting of photons and excitons....
The optical control of single electronic quantum states is the most fundamental and critical technique needed for the functioning of nano-optical devices and for the implementation of quantum-information processing. Semiconductor quantum dots (QDs), where electrons are confined in a nanoscale volume, are one of the promising candidates for a prototype of such quantum systems due to their atom-like...
Manipulating atoms with freedom has been one of any scientist’s dreams for a long time. Atoms have been used as a measure of whether quantum mechanics is correct. As is well known, the frequency and wavelength of light emitted from a Cs atom or a Rb atom are adopted as standards of time and length. For these purposes, gaseous atoms are often used. However, such atoms move about actively with high...
