The interaction of light and matter at the nanometer scale lies at the heart of quantum optics because it concerns elementary processes such as absorption or emission of a photon by an atom. Over the past decade, we have shown that direct coupling of a photon to a single quantum emitter should be possible via tight focusing. Coherent linear and nonlinear experimentshave also been performed onsingle molecules coupled to subwavelength waveguides on a chip. Furthermore, we have recently shown that these interactions can be enhanced by coupling the emitter to a microcavity. Together with their ability to generate narrowband stream of single photons, these developments usher in a new generation of experiments, where several quantum emitters can becoupled via photonic channels in a controlled fashion. This would allow one to access novel many-body quantum interactions and to realize chip-based quantum optical circuits. |

Vahid Sandoghdar obtained his B.S. in physics from the University of California at Davis in 1987 and Ph.D. in physics from Yale University in 1993. After a postdoctoral stay at the Ecole Normale Supérieure in Paris he moved to the University of Konstanz in Germany, where he started a new line of research to combine single molecule spectroscopy, scanning probe microscopy and quantum optics. In 2001, he accepted a chair at the Laboratory of Physical Chemistry at ETH in Zurich, Switzerland. In 2011, he became director at the newly established Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light in Erlangen and Alexander von Humboldt Professor at the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg in Germany. He is the founder of the new Max-Planck-Zentrum für Physik und Medizin, a joint research center that aims to address questions in fundamental medical research with physical and mathematical methods.
Sandoghdar is one of the founders of the field of Nano-Optics, which merges various methods and research areas to investigate fundamental issues in the interaction between light and matter at the nanometer scale. His current research ranges from quantum optics, plasmonics and ultrahigh resolution microscopy to nanobiophysics. |
