Les Houches Announcement
Introduction to circuit and cavity QED
a Winter School of the CCQED ITN network in Les Houches (France), 26 February – 2 March, 2012.
All participants are invited to download the lecture slides here.
Participants
- The school is aimed at PhD students and Post-docs working in the field of circuit and cavity QED. Besides a general introductory course on the principles of the field, there will be lectures on the experimental realizations in different physical systems such as atoms in optical cavities, superconducting circuits, quantum dots in photonic crystal cavities and many more. The participants will learn about the possibilities and the difficulties that each of the systems is offering. Theory sessions will complement the experimental lectures to give a deeper insight in current theoretical approaches. We encourage the participants to present posters about their work to exchange ideas and activate discussions.
