XX International Youth Scientific School “Coherent Optics and Optical Spectroscopy”

Abstract

The XX International Youth School on Coherent Optics and Optical Spectroscopy (COOS2016) was held in Kazan, Russia, from October 18 to October 20 on the Nikolai Lobachevsky Scientific Library of Kazan Federal University. The School follows the global tendency to comprehensive studies of matter properties and its interaction with electromagnetic fields. Since 1997 more than 100 famous scientists from USA, Germany, Ukraine, Belarus and Russia had plenary lectures presentations. This is the right place, where over 1000 young scientists had an opportunity to participate in hot discussions of the latest scientific news. Many young people have submitted interesting reports on photonics, quantum electronics, laser physics, quantum optics, traditional optical and laser spectroscopy, non-linear optics, material science and nanotechnology. Here we are publishing the full-size papers prepared from the most interesting lectures and reports selected by the Program Committee of the School. Plenary sessions were offered by the following invited speakers:Ildar Gabitov, University of Arizona, USA.• Error statistics in coherent communication linesAndrei Naumov, Institute for Spectroscopy RAS, Troitsk, Moscow, Russia.• Revisiting the question of the experimental realization of a nonclassical light source on the basis of single organic molecules of dyesGerd Hermann, University of Giessien, Germany.• Applications of Coherent SpectroscopyAskhat Basharov, National Research Center ‘Kurchatov Institute’, Moscow, Russia.• Low-frequency emission in resonant processes• Evolution of a two-level quantum particle in the noise classical e.-m. field within and beyond the resonant approximationAnastas Bukharaev, Kazan E.
