This chapter is an overview of the research on spin-based quantum dot quantum computation, which covers two most prominent architectures, one based... -
Solitons in Laser Systems with Saturable Absorption
A review is presented of the main features of localized structures - dissipative solitons - in optical systems with nonlinear amplification and... -
Introduction to Terahertz Pulses
An historical review of the optoelectronic terahertz technologies, initiated by Auston and Lee and developed remarkably, kee** in step with the... -
Enhanced Generation of Terahertz Radiation from Semiconductor Surfaces with External Magnetic Field
In this Chapter, a scheme to enhance generation of terahertz radiation from semiconductor surfaces irradiated by femtosecond laser with an external... -
Simulations of Solar AO Systems
In this paper, first we compare the two kinds of algorithms that are being used in solar AO systems to sense a distorted wave-front through... -
Search for Sub-Stellar Companions Using AO – First Results Obtained with NAOS-CONICA
We present first results of our NAOS-CONICA search for close substellar companions around young nearby stars. This program was started only a few... -
Near-Infrared AO Spectroscopy of Edge-On Protoplanetary Disks with Subaru IRCS
We carried out near infrared (1.4–4.2 μm) AO imaging and spectroscopy of two edge-on protoplanetary disks; HK TauB and HV TauC located in Taurus... -
A Search for Close Companions in Sco OB2
Using adaptive optics we study the binary population in the nearby OB association Scorpius OB2. We present the first results of our near-infrared... -
Adaptive Optics Observations of Stars in Globular Clusters and Nearby Galaxies
Observations of nearby stellar systems with the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope PUEO Adaptive Optics system, the University of Hawaii HOKUPA’A system... -
NACO Observations of NGC 1068
We present various recent results obtained with adaptive optics systems on the very central region of NGC 1068: Grif long-slit spectroscopy in K band... -
A Near-Infrared Adaptive Optics Imaging Survey of Nearby QSOs
We present the results of a near-IR Adaptive Optics imaging survey of 32 nearby (z<0.325) QSOs with curvature AO systems on the Gemini North and... -
Subaru Deep Field with Adaptive Optics
A deep K′-band (2.12μ m) image of 1′ × 1′ blank sky field (Subaru Deep Field; SDF) taken with Subaru Adaptive Optics System (AO) is presented. The... -
Adaptive Optics Science with the MMT Adaptive Secondary: Mid-IR AO Imaging of the Post-AGB Star AC Her
The world’s first adaptive secondary has been commissioned at the 6.5m MMT. Early science results suggests that it is unique and highly productive.... -

The first ESO adaptive optics system instrument, NACO, installed at the VLT has been offered to the astronomical community and used on a regular... -
Generation and Detection of Broadband Pulsed Terahertz Radiation
The generation and detection of ultrashort electromagnetic radiation is reviewed. The detection of ultrashort electromagnetic pulses with the... -
Terahertz Time-Domain Spectroscopy
Terahertz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS) is one of the most successful fields of THz optoelectronics. Measurements of semiconductors,... -
Terahertz Optics in Strongly Correlated Electron Systems
Exotic materials with strongly correlated electron systems (SCES) are of considerable interest to researchers engaged in fundamental and practical... -
Hot Massive Planets Around Nearby Young Stars – A Search with NACO at the VLT
The detection of massive planets (3-10 M J ) around nearby (D ≤ 50 pc) young late-type stars (10-200 Myr) is possible... -
Selected Examples of Solar and Extra-Solar Planetary Science with AO
High spatial resolution planetary science has seen a large boost from AO observations complementing space missions. Adaptive optics is particularly... -
Quality Control and Data Flow Operations of NAOS-CONICA
The verification of data and the monitoring of instrument performance – known collectively as quality control (QC) – are an integral part of the...
