物理学哲学博士-量子光学

物理系提供研究生课程，导致理学硕士和哲学博士学位。该系在以下领域进行实验和理论物理学的研究：大气物理学，地球物理学，量子光学，凝聚态物理学，亚原子物理学和天体物理学以及生物物理学。该系与加拿大理论天体物理学研究所（CITA）有着密切的联系。该协会使我们的学生能够与被任命为CITA或正在访问CITA的顶尖理论家一起工作并进行咨询。<br> <br> <br> <br> Quantum Optics集群包括从事AMO（原子）领域研究的人员，分子和光学）物理，量子信息，激光科学，等离子物理以及凝聚态物理的某些部
The Department of Physics offers graduate programs leading to the Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy degrees. The department carries out research in experimental and theoretical physics in the following fields: atmospheric physics, geophysics, quantum optics, condensed matter physics, subatomic physics and astrophysics, and biophysics. The department has close ties with the Canadian Institute for Theoretical Astrophysics (CITA). This association enables students to work and consult with leading theorists who are appointed to, or who are visiting, CITA. Students are admitted under the General Regulations of the School of Graduate Studies. The department provides financial support for one year of the MSc and four years of the PhD program (five years for direct-entry PhD).<br>The Quantum Optics cluster includes researchers working in the fields of AMO (atomic, molecular, and optical) physics, Quantum Information, Laser Science, Plasma Physics, and some parts of Condensed Matter Physics. Topics of study include: the properties of light, fundamentals of quantum mechanics, the interaction of light with photonic crystals, semiconductors, quantum wells and superlattices, ultrafast and nonlinear optical phenomena in condensed matter systems, Bose-Einstein condensation and neutral Fermi gases, trapped ions, plasma physics, and studies of biological systems using optical probes. Such a wide variety of interests are drawn together by a common focus on lasers as primary experimental tools, and on quantum mechanics as the primary theoretical paradigm.
