This century has seen the development of technologies for
manipulating and controlling matter and light at the level of
individual photons and atoms, a realm in which physics is fully
quantum-mechanical. The dominant experimental technology is the
laser, and the theoretical paradigm is quantum optics.The Quantum
World of Ultra-Cold Atoms and Light is a trilogy, which presents
the quantum optics way of thinking and its applications to quantum
devices. This book - The Physics of Quantum-Optical Devices -
provides a comprehensive treatment of theoretical quantum optics.
It covers applications to the optical manipulation of the quantum
states of atoms, laser cooling, continuous measurement, quantum
computers and quantum processors, superconducting systems and
quantum networks. The subject is consistently formulated in terms
of quantum stochastic techniques, and a systematic and thorough
development of these techniques is a central part of the book.
There is also a compact overview of the ideas of quantum
information theory.The main aim of the book is to present the
theoretical techniques necessary for the understanding of quantum
optical devices, with special attention to those devices used in
quantum information processing and quantum simulation. Although
these techniques were developed originally for the optical regime,
they are also applicable to electromagnetic radiation from the
microwave realm to the ultra-violet, and for atomic systems,
Josephson junction systems, quantum dots and nano-mechanical
systems.
