The book covers canonical quantization, the harmonic oscillator, vacuum fluctuations, Fock states, the single photon state, quantum optical treatment of the beam splitter and the interferometer, multimode quantized light, and coherent and incoherent states. Metrology is a particular area of emphasis, with the book culminating in a treatment of squeezed light and its use in the laser interferometer gravitational-wave observatory (LIGO). The Heisenberg limit is described, along with NOON states and their application in super-sensitivity, super-resolution and quantum lithography. Applications of entanglement and coincidence measurements are described including ghost imaging, quantum illumination, absolute photodetector calibration, and interaction-free measurement. With quantum optics playing a central role in the so-called ?second quantum revolution,? this book, equipped with plenty of exercises and worked examples, will leave students well prepared to enter graduate study or industry. 410 0$aUndergraduate Texts in Physics,$x2510-4128 606 $aQuantum optics 606 $aOptoelectronic devices 606 $aMaterials 606 $aPhotonics 606 $aQuantum theory 606 $aTelecommunication 606 $aQuantum computers 606 $aQuantum Optics 606 $aOptoelectronic Devices 606 $aPhotonic Devices 606 $aQuantum Imaging and Sensing 606 $aMicrowaves, RF Engineering and Optical Communications 606 $aQuantum Computing 615 0$aQuantum optics. 615 0$aOptoelectronic devices. 615 0$aMaterials. 615 0$aPhotonics. 615 0$aQuantum theory. 615 0$aTelecommunication. 615 0$aQuantum computers. 615 14$aQuantum Optics. 615 24$aOptoelectronic Devices. 615 24$aPhotonic Devices. 615 24$aQuantum Imaging and Sensing. 615 24$aMicrowaves, RF Engineering and Optical Communications. 615 24$aQuantum Computing. 676 $a535.15 700 $aLaPierre$b Ray$01073673 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910631085303321 996 $aGetting Started in Quantum Optics$92965638 997 $aUNINA
