Lecture

Quantum Optics: Basics and Applications

Description

This lecture covers the quantization of the electromagnetic field, including Fock states, coherent states, and squeezed states. It also discusses measuring quantum states of light, atom-field interaction, and the historical development of quantum optics. The course delves into superconducting circuits, quantum measurements, and quantum non-demolition measurements. Students will explore the applications of quantum optics, cavity quantum electrodynamics, and the transition from quantum to classical mechanics.
