The group for Theoretical Quantum Optics, headed by Prof. John Martin since 2011, is part of the Atomic and Nuclear Physics pole of the University of Liège (Belgium), along with the Cold-atom Physics group (Prof. Thierry Bastin) and the Quantum Statistical Physics group (Prof. Peter Schlagheck).
The Atomic and Nuclear Physics pole is part of a larger research unit named CESAM.
Our research activities revolve around quantum optics, quantum information theory, cold atom physics, and quantum chaos. More specifically, we are interested in ❯❯ open quantum systems (their description, dynamics, correlations, quantum phase transitions, ...), ❯❯ multipartite entanglement (its detection, classification and quantification) and non-classical correlations, in particular for multiqubit symmetric states and spin states, ❯❯ models displaying an Anderson delocalization-localization transition. |
