Synopsis
This revised and broadened second edition provides readers with an insight into this fascinating world and future technology in quantum optics. Alongside classical and quantum-mechanical models, the authors focus on important and current experimental techniques in quantum optics to provide an understanding of light, photons and laserbeams. In a comprehensible and lucid style, the book conveys the theoretical background indispensable for an understanding of actual experiments using photons. It covers basic modern optical components and procedures in detail, leading to experiments such as the generation of squeezed and entangled laserbeams, the test and applications of the quantum properties of single photons, and the use of light for quantum information experiments.

From the Publisher
Many of the most interesting phenomena observed in optics occur when the quantum mechanical nature of light is apparent. This guide to the many experiments that have been conducted in this field explores what can be learned from these experiments and explains the underlying physics. It emphasizes the practical over the theoretical and addresses the limitations of the equipment, what can be measured with it and goals for the future.
