Strong–laser–field physics is a research direction that relies on the use of high-power lasers and has led to fascinating achievements ranging from relativistic particle acceleration to attosecond science. On the other hand, quantum optics has been built on the use of low photon number sources and has opened the way for groundbreaking discoveries in quantum technology, advancing investigations ranging from fundamental tests of quantum theory to quantum information processing. Despite the tremendous progress, until recently these directions have remained disconnected. This is because the majority of the interactions in the strong-field limit have been successfully described by semi-classical approximations treating the electromagnetic field classically, as there was no need to include the quantum properties of the field to explain the observations. The link between strong–laser–field physics, quantum optics, and quantum information science has been developed in the recent past. Studies based on fully quantized and conditioning approaches have shown that intense laser–matter interactions can be used for the generation of controllable entangled and non-classical light states. These achievements open the way for a vast number of investigations stemming from the symbiosis of strong–laser–field physics, quantum optics, and quantum information science. Here, after an introduction to the fundamentals of these research directions, we report on the recent progress in the fully quantized description of intense laser–matter interaction and the methods that have been developed for the generation of non-classical light states and entangled states. Also, we discuss the future directions of non-classical light engineering using strong laser fields, and the potential applications in ultrafast and quantum information science.

The use of magnetic fields is one of the most efficient means of assembling colloidal structures and manipulating their structure, interactions, and dynamics. More recently, it has become a convenient means of powering and controlling active colloidal structures and microbot prototypes. This talk will discuss a few classes of dynamically reconfigurable, active, and self-propelling magnetic colloidal structures. We will first discuss how the combination of magnetic assembly and nanocapillary liquid binding can be used to make ultraflexibile and responsive filaments from lipid-coated nanoparticles suspended in water. Alternatively, the nanoparticle chains can be assembled and embedded inside silicone microbeads, resulting in a few types of soft micromagnets and microvoxels. These soft magnets can be incorporated into homocomposite thixotropic silicone pastes and can be directly shaped on a 3D printer to enable multiple classes of active magnetically reconfigurable structures. In the second part of the talk, we will discuss the principles of using magnetic assembly and actuation of dynamically reconfigurable active particle structures. We will show how assemblies of Janus polymer-metal microcubes can store energy through magnetic polarization of the metallic facets and release it on-demand by microscale reconfiguration. The reconfiguration pattern of folding and shape changes of the assemblies is encoded in the sequence of the cube orientation. Such structures can be directionally moved, steered, and maneuvered by external magnetic fields, acting as prototypes of microbots, micromixers and other active microstructures. These reconfigurable clusters can also be designed to be self-motile in media with non-Newtonian rheology. Such active assembles can serve as microtools for interfacial studies in liquid crystal and biological systems.
