Fundamentals of Quantum Optics II Proceedings of the Third Meeting on Laser Phenomena Held at the Bundessportheim in Obergurgl, Austria, February 22–28, 1987
Quantum optics in the most general sense seeks to understand the physical phenomena related to the interaction of radiation and matter. The field has therefore always been characterized by an enormous span of activities from fundamental investigations - e.g., into the nature of radiation fields - to...
