Advances in Chemical Physics
Wiley 2004; US$ 388.00Significant advances have occurred in the field since the previous edition, including advances in light squeezing, single photon optics, phase conjugation, and laser technology. The laser is essentially responsible for nonlinear effects and is extensively used in all branches of science, industry, and medicine. more...
Cavity Quantum Electrodynamics
Wiley 2005; US$ 145.00What happens to light when it is trapped in a box? Cavity Quantum Electrodynamics addresses a fascinating question in physics: what happens to light, and in particular to its interaction with matter, when it is trapped inside a box? With the aid of a model-building approach, readers discover the answer to this question and come to appreciate its important... more...
Depolarizing Collisions in Nonlinear Electrodynamics
CRC Press 2004; US$ 189.95In this book, the authors derive the theory of elastic depolarizing collisions and describe their importance in some nonlinear electromagnetic phenomena in gaseous media. The formation of photon echo and a description of its various types in gaseous media are then presented. The authors show that the characteristics of the corresponding signals depend... more...
Extreme Nonlinear Optics
Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG 2006; US$ 109.99Following the birth of the laser in 1960, the field of "nonlinear optics" rapidly emerged.Today, laser intensities and pulse durations are readily available, for which the concepts and approximations of traditional nonlinear optics no longer apply. In this regime of "extreme nonlinear optics," a large variety of novel and unusual... more...
A Group-Theoretical Approach to Quantum Optics
Wiley 2009; US$ 210.00Written by major contributors to the field who are well known within the community, this is the first comprehensive summary of the many results generated by this approach to quantum optics to date. As such, the book analyses selected topics of quantum optics, focusing on atom-field interactions from a group-theoretical perspective, while discussing... more...
Handbook of Nonlinear Optics
Marcel Dekker Inc 2003; US$ 279.95This text examines classic theories, experimental methods and practical formulas for exploration of the core topics in nonlinear optics. It contains additional chapters on ultrafast characterization techniques, laser flash photolysis and the electro-optic effect. more...
Introductory Quantum Optics
Cambridge University Press 2004; US$ 64.00This book provides an elementary introduction to quantum optics, the study of the quantum mechanical nature of light and its interaction with matter. It is designed for upper-level undergraduates taking courses in quantum optics who have already taken courses in quantum mechanics, and for first and second year graduate students. more...
Laser Control of Atoms and Molecules
Oxford University Press, UK 2007; US$ 57.99This text treats laser light as a universal tool to control matter at the atomic and molecular level, one of the most exciting applications of lasers. Lasers can heat matter, cool atoms to ultra-low temperatures where they show quantum collective behaviour, and can act selectively on specific atoms and molecules for their detection and separation.... more...
