Description
Oxford Quantum Optics and Nanophotonics 2017 Edition by Claude Fabre, Vahid Sandoghdar, Nicolas Treps
Quantum Optics and Nanophotonics consists of the lecture notes of the Les Houches Summer School 101 held in August 2013. Some of the most eminent experts in this flourishing area of research have contributed chapters lying at the intersection of basic quantum science and advanced nanotechnology. The book is part of the renowned series of tutorial books that contain the lecture notes of all the Les Houches Summer Schools since the 1950's and cover the latestdevelopments in physics and related fields.
