Micro-fabricated diffractive optics for quantum sensors and atomic clocks
… homogeneous and inhomogeneous magnetic fields. Coherent population trapping was studied on the D1 line of rubidium to realise a high contrast superposition state for clock measurements. These initial clock measurements lead to the development of a microwave regime atomic clock, based on a …

Predicting the future of atomic clocks using the Theory of Evolution
… future of rubidium oscillators will be based on coherent population trapping technology. The miniature rubidium clocks will be smaller, cheaper, and will be operated by small batteries.

Quantum nonlinear optics: applications to quantum metrology, imaging, and information
… mixing, nonlinear magneto-optical effects and coherent population trapping in warm atomic vapor involving quantum states of light are investigated. The process of seeding third-order nonlinear interactions, such as in atomic vapors, gives rise to a variety of interesting, nonclassical phenomena …

Light pulse atom interferometry at short interrogation times for inertial navigation
… Raman pulses were implemented to improve population transfer efficiency, which limits the achievable increase in precision. Finally, the effect of coherent population trapping (CPT) induced by Raman pulse atom optics was identified as a source of systematic phase shifts in the [pi]/2 - …

The silicon-vacancy centre in diamond for quantum information processing
… to atom-like quantum properties without complex trapping methods while displaying a rich physics due to interactions with their solid-state environment. Such properties have made them an advantageous building block for quantum information processing, in particular to construct a quantum network, …

Three Grains, Two Photons and a Colourful Diamond
… (SiV) colour-centre in diamond are reported. Coherent Population Trapping (CPT) experiments performed using electrically actuated diamond micro-cantilevers show that the ground state splitting, and therefore the strength of the electron-photon coupling limiting the coherence time in this …

Environmental coupling in a quantum dot as a resource for quantum optics and spin control
… highly non-classical states of light and coherently control a single spin confined to the quantum dot. A departure from the ideal atomic picture appears once we consider the mesoscopic environment with which the quantum dot interacts. Charge fluctuations in the surroundings of the quantum …

Development of Optoelectronic Devices and Computational Tools for the Production and Manipulation of Heavy Rydberg Systems
… the implementation of the STIRAP technique for coherent control of atoms and molecules in the beam experiment. The work presented provides tools to further the aim of producing large, mono-energetic populations of heavy Rydberg systems.
