Quantum optical scatterings applied to photonics

The interaction of light with matter can generate different types of scattering that can be applied to quantum optics, photonics and integrated optics appropriately. The generation of certain pulses in certain waveguides can produce certain nonlinear optical pulses with important properties such as low energy and information loss applied, for example, to communication systems and quantum information. The method we describe is based on the generation and propagation of nonlinear optical pulses in multidimensional material structures: waveguides in 1 dimension, planar systems in 2 dimensions and crystalline systems in 3 dimensions. These structures can be appropriately designed to generate nonlinear and quantum optical pulses depending on the crystal structure and electrical susceptibility of the material. These optical pulses can be appropriately characterized whose respective scattering signals can be identified and processed providing an application basis for emerging technologies for transmission and processing systems based on quantum optics and quantum computing.
