Most previous texts on quantum optics have been written primarily
for the graduate student market at PhD level and above. Quantum
optics: an introduction aims to introduce a wide range of topics at
a lower level suitable for advanced undergraduate and Masters level
students in physics. The text is divided into four main parts,
covering modern topics in both pure and applied quantum optics: I.
Introduction and background material. II. Photons. III. Atom-photon
interactions. IV. Quantum information processing. The emphasis of
the subject development is on intuitive physical understanding
rather than mathematical arguments, although many derivations are
included where appropriate. The text includes numerous
illustrations, with a particular emphasis on the experimental
observations of quantum optical phenomena. Each chapter includes
worked examples, together with 10-15 exercises with solutions. Six
appendices are included to supplement the main subject material.
