Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this contract was to study a number of areas that require the use of higher-order coherence and correlation functions. Research was performed in the following areas: (1) Determination of the statistical properties of static electric and elastic fields in a random medium; (2) Study of the propagation of the second and fourth-order coherence functions in a random medium; (3) Quantum field formulation of the scattering of partially coherent radiation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The results included in this dissertation demonstrate that the statistical properties of the electromagnetic fields which exist in the close proximity of inhomogeneous media can be used to extract structural information. They also suggest the possibility to adjust the coherence properties of the emitted radiation by modifying the statistical properties of the interfaces. Understanding the random interference phenomena in the near-field could also lead to new possibilities for surface and subsurface diagnostics of inhomogeneous media. In addition, controlling the statistical properties of radiation at subwavelength scales should be of paramount importance in the design of miniaturized optical sources, detectors and sensors.
Download or read book Effects of Coherence in Electromagnetic Radiation written by Emil Wolf and published by . This book was released on 1967 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report summarizes researches concerned with theoretical studies of coherence effects in electromagnetic fields, with special reference to the electromangetic range of the spectrum. Various properties of fluctuating fields were investigated and second and higher order coherence effects were analyzed. Relation between the classical and quantum theory of coherence was also considered. A degree of coherence of arbitrary order was introduced which has some advantages over that introduced earlier by other authors. Further, diagonal coherent state representation of quantum operators was studied. Some related investigations in statistical mechanics, and in diffraction theory of the electromagnetic field were also carried out. (Author).
Download or read book Quantum Optics written by D.F. Walls and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quantum Optics gives a comprehensive coverage of developments in quantum optics over the past twenty years. In the early chapters the formalism of quantum optics is elucidated and the main techniques are introduced. These are applied in the later chapters to problems such as squeezed states of light, resonance fluorescence, laser theory, quantum theory of four-wave mixing, quantum non-demolition measurements, Bell's inequalities, and atom optics. Experimental results are used to illustrate the theory throughout. This yields the most comprehensive and up-to-date coverage of experiment and theory in quantum optics in any textbook.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent advances are surveyed in research on the coherence properties of light and the concept is discussed of the photon degeneracy and the degree of coherence, which plays an important role in explaining many problems such as interference, beats, intensity fluctuations and so on. Since the processes of radiation occur at random the intensity of beat signal is determined by the correlation of the processes. Since photons are regarded as bosons there will be a corresponding term in the intensity fluctuations. From the experimental results available it appears that all coherent properties of light can be explained in terms of the basic concept of quantum mechanics. (Author).

This book was released on 1964 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The well-known analytic theory of partially polarized electromagnetic waves is complemented with a geometric theory. In the geometric theory the components of the 2 X 2 coherence matrix of a partially polarized plane wave and the Stokes parameters of the wave are treated in two four-dimensional spaces. From the first four-dimensional space a three-dimensional space is derived which constitutes a Poincare model of threedimensional (non-Euclidean) hyperbolic space having a plane, the polarization ratio plane, as the fundamental surface. This model can also be obtained by a generalization to three dimensions of an elementary inversion method called the Isometric Circle Method in the polarization ratio plane. A cross section through the second four-dimensional space, which is a Minkowski model of Lorentz space, yields the Cayley-Klein model of three-dimensional hyperbolic space having the unit sphere, in optics called the Poincare sphere, as fundamental surface. Invariant properties of partially polarized waves are studied by means of the different models. So, for example, transformations of the complex degree of correlation mu and the degree of polarization P (defined as the ratio of the polarized intensity and the total intensity) are studied in the Poincare and CayleyKlein models by means of simple geometric constructions which lucidly show the relationships between the degree of correlation and the degree of polarization.

Download or read book Quantum Optics and Laser Experiments written by Sergiy Lyagushyn and published by IntechOpen. This book was released on 2012-01-20 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book embraces a wide spectrum of problems falling under the concepts of "Quantum optics" and "Laser experiments". These actively developing branches of physics are of great significance both for theoretical understanding of the quantum nature of optical phenomena and for practical applications. The book includes theoretical contributions devoted to such problems as providing a general approach to describe electromagnetic field states with correlation functions of different nature, nonclassical properties of some superpositions of field states in time-varying media, photon localization, mathematical apparatus that is necessary for field state reconstruction on the basis of restricted set of observables, and quantum electrodynamics processes in strong fields provided by pulsed laser beams. Experimental contributions are presented in chapters about some quantum optics processes in photonic crystals - media with spatially modulated dielectric properties - and chapters dealing with the formation of cloud of cold atoms in magneto optical trap. All chapters provide the necessary basic knowledge of the phenomena under discussion and well-explained mathematical calculations.
Download or read book Fundamental Studies of the Coherence Properties of Electromagnetic Radiation written by D. L. FALKOFF and published by . This book was released on 1966 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theoretical studies have been made of the quantum mechanical description of coherence in materials such as ferromagnets and superconductors and of electromagnetic radiation. In the latter studies, application has been made to effects of coherence and high power on photodetection. A practical result is that the photon echo measurement is shown to provide a sensitive detector of coherence. Experimental work has been carried out to determine the diffusion coefficients and spin depolarization cross sections of optically pumped alkali vapors in noble buffer gases. A method has been developed to measure the density of cesium vapor as a function of temperature. (Author).
