ABSTRACT
Systems of optically coupled quantum structures should be applicable to quantum information processing (Bayer et al. 2001, Stina˜ et al. 2006). Additional functional devices, i.e., nanophotonic devices (Ohtsu et al. 2002, Kawazoe et al. 2003, 2005, 2006), can be realized by controlling the exciton excitation in quantum dots (QDs) and quantum-well structures (QWs). ›is chapter reviews the recent achievements with nanophotonic devices based on colloidal QDs (Section 36.2) and nanorod QWs (Section 36.3).
