Synopsis

An Introduction to Quantum Optics: An open systems approach (Second Edition) has added content in the early chapters on the basics, and the later, new chapters, discuss recent techniques from other fields that are now being introduced into the quantum optics/quantum information arena. The emphasis is on optical systems that involve a few atoms and/or cavity modes, where quantum noise effects are most noticeable. The interest is in fundamental limits imposed by nature, in terms of communication, computing, and metrology.

Key Features:

  • Solid introduction to the key features of the field.

  • Excellent first exposure to nonequilibrium quantum statistical mechanics.

  • Developed from 30 years of teaching.

  • Includes recent developments in the field.

  • Second edition includes 4 new chapters.
