Abstract :
The summary form only given. We will discuss our work towards controlling light-matter interactions that make use of sub-wavelength localization of optical fields. Our approach combines the ideas of quantum optics with those of electronics and plasmonics. It can be used to create an efficient quantum interface between individual optical emitters and individual surfaces plasmons, to develop novel kinds of nanoscale sensors and to control cold atoms in nanoscale traps.
