We review the current status of single-photon-source and single-photon-detector
technologies operating at wavelengths from the ultraviolet to the infrared. We discuss …

During the last decade, many exciting phenomena have been experimentally observed and
theoretically predicted for ultracold atoms in optical lattices. This paper reviews these rapid …

On June 19th 1999, the European Ministers of Education signed the Bologna Declaration,
with which they agreed that the European university education should be uniformized …

For anyone looking to understand photonic crystals, this systematic, rigorous, and
pedagogical introduction is a must. Here you'll find intuitive analytical and semi-analytical …

The study of superfluid fermion pairs in a periodic potential has important ramifications for
understanding superconductivity in crystalline materials. By using cold atomic gases …

We create molecules from fermionic atoms in a three-dimensional optical lattice using a
Feshbach resonance. In the limit of low tunneling, the individual wells can be regarded as …

Basic properties of cold Bose atoms in optical lattices are reviewed. The main principles of
correct self-consistent description of arbitrary systems with Bose-Einstein condensate are …

We discuss exact solutions of the Schrödinger equation for the system of two ultracold atoms
confined in an axially symmetric harmonic potential. We investigate different geometries of …

Laser cooling and trap** techniques allow us to control and manipulate neutral atoms.
Here we rearrange, with submicrometre precision, the positions and ordering of laser …

We studied quantum depletion in a gaseous Bose-Einstein condensate. An optical lattice
enhanced the atomic interactions and modified the dispersion relation resulting in strong …
