A review of coherent and collective quantum optical effects like superradiance and coherent
population trapping in mesoscopic systems is presented. Various new physical realizations …

Written by two of the world's leading researchers in the field, this is a systematic introduction
to the fundamental principles of coherent control, and to the underlying physics and …

Excitation transfer through interacting systems plays an important role in many areas of
physics, chemistry, and biology. The uncontrollable interaction of the transmission network …

We investigate coherent time evolution of charge states (pseudospin qubit) in a
semiconductor double quantum dot. This fully tunable qubit is manipulated with a high …

We provide physically intuitive mechanisms for the effect of noise on excitation energy
transfer (EET) in networks. Using these mechanisms of dephasing-assisted transport (DAT) …

Spin qubits based on interacting spins in double quantum dots have been demonstrated
successfully,. Readout of the qubit state involves a conversion of spin to charge information …

We present a fully electronic analogue of coherent population trapping in quantum optics,
based on destructive interference of single-electron tunneling between three quantum dots …

Illumination of atoms by resonant lasers can pump electrons into a coherent superposition of
hyperfine levels which can no longer absorb the light. Such superposition is known as a …

We investigate the influence of dissipation on one-and two-qubit rotations in coupled
semiconductor quantum dots, using a (pseudo-) spin-boson model with adiabatically varying …

We study transport through a triple quantum dot in a triangular geometry with applied bias
such that both singly-and doubly-charged states participate. We describe the formation of …
