Designed as a stand-alone text, an Introduction to Quantum Optics presents the theoretical concepts and experimental techniques involved in modern quantum optics. This book reviews basic theory and experimental evidence for the quantization of light, addressing such advanced concepts as entanglement and two-photon phenomena. It examines the devices and experimental procedures used to test theories and considers higher-level ideas including coherent and squeezed states, atom-field interaction, electromagnetically induced transparency, and lasing without inversion. Aimed at senior undergraduate and graduate students, the author assumes knowledge of quantum mechanics and special relativity.Shih, Yanhua is the author of 'Introduction to Quantum Optics Photon And Bi-photon Physics', published 2007 under ISBN 9780750308878 and ISBN 0750308877.
