Descriptions
Quantum Optics 1 : Single Photons, This course provides the basic tools and concepts to understand research articles and books on modern quantum optics. It focuses on the concept of the photon and its measurement through photodetection. The curriculum begins with a semi-classical description of light-matter interaction, where light is treated as a classical field and matter is quantized. This approach is used to understand the principles of photodetectors and the statistics of photodetection signals.
The course then transitions to a fully quantum description of light, introducing the quantization of the electromagnetic field and the concept of the photon. You will explore quantum states of light, such as Fock states, coherent states, and squeezed states, and learn about their representation in phase space using the Wigner function. The properties of these quantum states are examined through their behavior in a beam splitter and their detection statistics, providing a comprehensive foundation in the quantum nature of light.
