内容説明

Hans-A. Bachor A Guide to Experiments in Quantum Optics Among the most interesting phenomena in optics are those which show the quantum mechanical nature of light. This volume is intended as a guide through the multitude of fascinating experiments that are available today. Without evading the necessary amount of theory, it focuses on real experiments and what can be learned from them. Limitations of the equipment are compared with fundamental limitations of the measurement process. Not only basic experiments which are forming the building blocks of more advanced setups are presented, but also a number of high-end applications such as telecommunication sensors, cryptography and gravitational wave detectors. Bridging the gap between experiment and theory, this volume is an invaluable source for anyone seeking to apply his basic knowledge of optics to real experimental problems. Instructors and students will find the book equally useful to augment their courses with practice-oriented material.
