Most prior texts on quantum optics have been written originally for the graduate student market at PhD state of equality and above. Quantum optics: an elementary aims to introduce a wide class of topics at a lower horizontal surface suitable for advanced undergraduate and masters condition students in physics. The text is divided into four main parts, covering modern topics in as well-as; not only-but also; not only-but; not alone-but pure and applied quantum optics: I Introduction and background vital. II. Photons. III. Atom-photon interactions. IV. Quantum intelligence processing. The emphasis of the subject progress to maturity is on intuitive physical understanding tolerably than mathematical arguments, although many derivations are included where appropriate. The text includes numerous illustrations, by a particular emphasis on the ascertained observations of quantum optical phenomena. Each chapter includes worked examples, hand in hand with 10-15 exercises with solutions. Six appendices are included to supply the main subject material.
