edited by V. V. Dodonov and V. I. Man'ko.
- Boca Raton, Florida : CRC Press, 2019.
- 384 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm.
Collection of invited chapters on the theory and generation of nonclassical states of light.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
"Nonclassical" states in quantum physics: brief historical review -- Squeezed states -- Parametric excitation and generation of nonclassical states in linear media -- Even and odd coherent states -- Tomographic representation of quantum mechanics and quantum optics -- Binomial states of light -- Nonclassical states in Kerr media -- From the Jaynes-Cummings model to collective interactions.
The book Theory of Nonclassical States of Light is an advanced reference on the theoretical foundations of nonclassical optical states. It examines squeezed states, Schrödinger cat states, coherent-state superpositions, binomial states, Kerr media, photon statistics, and light–matter interactions, together with methods for generating and characterizing quantum states of light. The volume is an essential resource for graduate students and researchers working in quantum optics, laser physics, and quantum information science.
