Sommaire:

In this seminar I will review a family of models that couple Maxwell equations for the classical description of an electromagnetic field induced by a laser and Bloch equations for the quantum description of matter, which will be of various type, isotropic gases, crystals, quantum boxes. The models are obtained either in the Schrödinger or the Heisenberg picture of quantum mechanics. Various phenomena can be taken into account such as nonlinear effects, Coulomb interaction, electron-phonon interactions… Numerical methods have been developed to show the numerous situations that can be described by these models. They are however very expensive to simulate and a few hints on derived asymptotic models will also be given.
