ABSTRACT
Today, microfabrication techniques allow to manufacture structures
that control the propagation of light on the nanoscale. Such
nanophotonic devices can be used to tailor the properties of single-
quantum emitters, as discussed at the end of Part I. Thus, they
can be used for many interesting quantum optics experiments and
might become a basis for a future integrated quantum technology.
Furthermore, integrated semiconductor optics will enable tremen-
dous progress in VLSI electronic circuits. Currently, progress is
limited by the broadband wiring of the different areas on a chip. For
this problem, optical interconnections are a favorable solution.
