Christophe Couteau

My current research interests are on quantum nanodevices (qnD, see also www.quantumnanodevices.com) which is a research activity hosted by the Laboratory Light, nanomaterails & nanotechnologies (L2n). The L2n is a laboratory of one of the French Technological Universities in Troyes (UTT) in the Champagne region in France. Quantum nanodevices means that I work on quantum properties of nanostructures in order to make or to study new devices that have both nano AND quantum properties. One aspect is to use integrated quantum optics and quantum photonics to make an integrated single photon source or an integrated nanowire detectors. Another aspect is also to study and to harness the light-matter interaction using these devices.
