Description: Quantum Optics and Fundamentals of Physics by Jan Perina, Z. Hradil, B. Jurco Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description Such single-photon and twin-photon effects of quantum optics provide new point of view of interpretations of quantum theory and new tests of its principles. The most important part of this book discusses quantum optical experiments supporting quantum theory. Publisher Description This work deals with the contemporary development of quantum theory from the point of view of quantum optics. The fundamentals of quantum theory are presented, with particular attention being given to the quantum theory of measurement. General coherent states are adopted as the most important theoretical tool for the description of the interaction of optical fields with matter. Quantum theory predicts various nonclassical phenomena, such as squeezing of vacuum fluctuations, photon antibunching, sub-Poisson photon statistics, and collapses and revivals of atomic motion. These quantum effects can be observed, together with violation of various classical and Bells inequalities, using photon interference and correlation techniques. This is demonstrated by experiments involving single-photon and two-photon interferences, squeezed and sub-Poisson light and twin photons produced by frequency down conversion. All these results are in agreement with quantum theory and they confirm the wave-particle duality of a photon and the `nonlocal features of quantum theory. Author Biography JAN PERINA, PhD, is Professor in the Department of Optics at Palacky? University, Olomouc, Czech Republic. He is also the author/coauthor of several other books and numerous articles in the field of quantum optics.
