Introduction To Modern Quantum Optics

This work discusses quantum optics and investigates the quantum properties of interactions between atoms and laser fields.

It is divided into three parts. Part I introduces the elementary theory of the interaction between atoms and light.

Part II provides a concentrated discussion on the quantum properties of light fields.

Part III deals with the quantum dynamic properties of the atoms interacting with laser fields.

This book can be used as a text for both graduate and undergraduate students.

It should also benefit scientists who are interested in quantum optics and theoretical physics.
