| Research Abstract |
This theoretical work explored new possibilities of matter-wave quantum control with the use of light field, and paved the way for the understanding and description of fundamental aspect of coupled light-matter wave systems. The main results of this research are summarized as follows : 1. development of optomechanics of composite bosons ; in particular, quantum-degenerate fermi gas trapped in a Fabry-Perot cavity, 2. proposal of new techniques to generate nonclassical matter-wave states with the use of the optical angular momentum, and 3. understanding a metastable quantum phase transition in an exactly solvable system via several theoretical analyses.
