Lectures on Light

Nonlinear and Quantum Optics Using the Density Matrix

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book bridges a gap between introductory optics texts and the vanguard of optical science, where light is used as a tool to probe the properties of new materials. A single mathematical tool is introduced that enables readers to understand laser tweezers, laser cooling, optical magnetism, squeezed light, and many other advanced topics.
