a great book for those new to physics.......2002-09-29
As a college student, I always hoped for easy-to-understand textbooks every semester. This book met my expectations! It is taught from a non-calculus point of view...but those of us that know calculus will know how to deal with the myriad of equations that you encounter in physics.
Jones and Childers have put a great textbook together. The chapters are very easy to understand--concepts are explained thoroughly, and then supplemented with examples that are solved step by step and the results are discussed. The figures are drawn well--even things like relativity and quantum mechanics make more sense after reading this book!
To summarize--if this is the textbook for your class, you are in luck. Buy it...if you are interested in physics at all, you will enjoy the book. If you are looking for a book to help learn concepts in physics, and want a textbook, this one is for you too! Compared to all the other textbooks out there, this is one of the top two (Serway's book being the other).
A Contemporary Review of "Contemporary College Physics".......2001-11-03
This book is very well written, due to the choices of sentences and words. The sentences are to the point and not like MANY physics books who dance around the topic. In addition to having carefully chosen examples that illustrates its point clearly.
The book also has nice illustrations printed on nice paper, unlike other EXPENSIVE books printed on "cheap" paper. The book includes all the topics other books would cover in two volumes and hence would cost significantly more. I highly recommend this text for anyone (including poor students like me)!! ;)
This is an answer book only! This is not the textbook!.......1999-10-03
This book is advertised as something it is not. Do not order this book if you want the textbook! This book offers answers to the questions in the text ONLY!
Book Description
Quantum optics has witnessed significant theoretical and experimental developments in recent years. This book provides an in-depth and wide-ranging introduction to the subject, emphasizing throughout the basic principles and their applications. The book begins by developing the basic tools of quantum optics, and goes on to show the application of these tools in a variety of quantum optical systems, including lasing without inversion, squeezed states, and atom optics. The final four chapters discuss quantum optical tests of the foundations of quantum mechanics, and particular aspects of measurement theory. Assuming only a background of standard quantum mechanics and electromagnetic theory, and containing many problems and references, this book will be invaluable to graduate students of quantum optics, as well as to researchers in this field.

A helpful book, but far from easy........2006-02-20
Compared to Wolf and Mandel's tome "Optical Coherence and Quantum Optics", this book gives the reader a lighter job on math without him reading over 100 pages on probability theory and fourier transform. However, this book has two major drawbacks:
1. The author keeps refering to later chapters on some important concept. When I read the first two chapters, I have many undefined concept and unanswered questions, whose answer may be put in chapter 16! For those who are already familiar with this field, it may not be a problem. But a rookie may want a lucid and detailed introduction in the beginning.
2. Some calculation should be elaborated because the result is far from obvious.
Not an easy text for self study.......2005-11-28
I am a mathematician with extensive experience in electrodynamics and
quantum mechanics. I read this book to teach myself quantum optics.
Since I read it as a self-study text,
I will review it from that perspective.
I didn't find this to be a good pedagogical book.
It is the first quantum optics book that I read,
and I didn't get much out of it.
Thinking that perhaps the problem was inadequate background,
I then read from cover to cover Elementary Quantum Optics by Gerry and Knight.
Although there are some problems with the latter
which are addressed in a separate review,
it did make more sense.
With Gerry/Knight under my belt,
I returned to reread Scully/Zubairy.
It didn't make much more sense the second time than the first.
The presentation of Scully/Zubairy is often sloppy
and too diffuse. Like too many physics texts, it
doesn't always carefully define all its symbols, and
it frequently sneaks in important assumptions
without explicit mention.
It demands a lot of guesswork from the reader.
For example, Chapter 1 tells us that
"as we will discuss in [Chapter 4],
the probability of exciting an atom ...
is governed by [formula (1.5.12)]".
This is a crucial formula, one of the most important in the book.
If the reader turns ahead to Chapter 4,
he does reassuringly find it in equation (4.2.4).
The impression given is that it has somehow been derived
in the intervening 100-odd pages.
But it hasn't,
so far as I have been able to discover.
Is this crucial formula
a new assumption of quantum optics,
or does it somehow follow from
established quantum-mechanical principles?
The reader is left to guess.
Readers who are satisfied
to accept unmotivated statements on authority
may be happier with this book than
readers who seek a fundamental understanding of
the logical structure of the subject.
I was particularly interested in the
Hanbury Brown and Twiss experiment treated in Chapter 4,
so I read that chapter particularly carefully.
Indeed I read it very carefully several times,
but I was forced to consult other sources
to understand this experiment.
I think that the text's treatment omits important,
non-obvious assumptions and contains some errors.
However, study of other sources finally convinced me that
the text's final result, equation (4.1.26),
is probably correct.
(Incidentally, I think that the treatment
of this important experiment in Gerry/Knight is also inadequate.)
Figure (4.6) which purports to be
a diagram of this experiment
contains a component which produces a "delay time",
but the text's analysis
never explains the purpose of this component.
From other sources I've learned that
the delay time is extremely important
for some variants of this experiment.
This is fairly typical of the text's haphazard approach.
Chapter 20 discusses a "quantum eraser" experiment whose
result is so startling that Scully and Zubairy
cite Jaynes as considering it
a paradox, a "violent irrationality"
(as Scully and Zubairy paraphrase Jaynes).
It certainly seems that way to me,
and I would very much like to understand this experiment better.
Scully and Zubairy never make clear
if this is an actual experiment which has been performed,
or a "thought experiment".
Surely the exposition of such remarkable claims should be more explicit.
They present a calculation which is claimed to
"resolve the 'Jaynes paradox'".
I was disappointed that I could not follow this calculation because
its exposition is far too vague.
In particular, they obtain their main result, equation (20.3.5),
under the assumption that "the interaction Hamiltonian ... depends
on symmetric combinations of the field variables, so that only the symmetric
state ... will couple to the fields".
This might be convincing if they had ever defined their "interaction Hamiltonian",
but the reader is left to guess at which interaction Hamiltonian they might be using.
I cannot recommend this book for readers
who are not experts in quantum optics.
I cannot judge whether it might be useful to experts.
An excellent introduction!.......2000-03-27
This is the best introductory text on quantum optics that I've read. Its very clear and up to date. The only book that compares as far as clarity of presentation is Loudon's "Quantum Theory of Light" which is a little out of date. This book is a must have for any grad. student in AMO physics !
Book Description
Atom-Photon Interactions: Basic Processes and Applications allows the reader to master various aspects of the physics of the interaction between light and matter. It is devoted to the study of the interactions between photons and atoms in atomic and molecular physics, quantum optics, and laser physics. The elementary processes in which photons are emitted, absorbed, scattered, or exchanged between atoms are treated in detail and described using diagrammatic representation. The book presents different theoretical approaches, including:
* Perturbative methods
* The resolvent method
* Use of the master equation
* The Langevin equation
* The optical Bloch equations
* The dressed-atom approach
Each method is presented in a self-contained manner so that it may be studied independently. Many applications of these approaches to simple and important physical phenomena are given to illustrate the potential and limitations of each method.

Very useful.......2000-06-26
Atom Photon Interactions is an excellent text for atomic and optical physics. I refer back to the review material---transition amplitudes, quantum electrodynamic fundamentals, etc--- over and over again. Naturally, these sections are very brief, and the book works best along side Cohen-Tannoudji's more elementary texts Quantum Mechanics and Photons and Atoms, or their equivalents.
The later chapters are rich in techniques and intuition applicable to atom-trapping, spectroscopy, laser theory, etc. Cohen-Tannoudji covers a lot of material, and manages to link it all to a few basic fundamental principles. The book is extremely well-organized, with bite-sized sections and appendices to each chapter. An excellent collection of exercises with solutions is included in the back. Unfortunately, the text does not prompt the reader to try working these problems at appropriate times (sadly, I didn't realize the exercises were there until I'd been using the book for some time). Like Photons and Atoms, this is primarily a book for theorists; its one weakness, I feel, is that the principles, however clear, never seem connected to the actual numbers that an experimentalist or system designer can relate to.

Could have been great - but this book sucks.......2005-01-24
This book has incredible potential. This could have been a great book. But unfortunately this book really sucks. The author only gives partial explanations while he is deriving formulas. There is not enough information given to follow and learn the subject matter while following his derivations. This book should only be used by people who know how to derive all the equations. So if you don't know the material before purchasing this book then don't waste your money.
An excellent reference book for lasers........2004-06-19
This book is definately not for the novice. This book covers a large amount of material in its 777 pages. I got this book as an undergraduate for an advanced optics survey course. It was a little sparse on the explanations for an undergraduate. In graduate school however, this text has come in handy a number of times to fill in the gaps from other books or in heavy-duty problem solving. His coverage of gain saturation, broadening and line-widths I thought were especially usefull, as well as his coverage of the ABCD matrices. All in all, a must-have for your optics bookshelf.
Pleasant layout, but cops out when things get subtle........2003-10-26
The layout of this book is very pleasant. Nice, clean typography. The presentation is informal without sacrificing accuracy. However, the author seems to have a bad habit. When the explanation is straightforward (ie the reader can probably figure it out on his/her own), he does a fine job of explaining. When explanations are really needed, he relegates them to the problems. For example, in the sections dealing with the density matrix formalism, he assigns in the general formulation a characteristic decay constant to each energy level. So when it comes to working out the two-level problem, he should explain why he can justifiably "simplify" the problem by assigning a single decay time constant to the population difference between the two levels, instead of perserving the two different decay constants. This is one of the more subtle points in the whole density matrix presentation, yet he weasels out of the situation by leaving it to the problems section. The same pattern is repeated in the part where a comparison between the results of rate equations and density matrix are made. When it comes time to really point out the reason for the validity of the rate equations, he relegates it to the problems again. This is unfortunate, since a proper explanation would clearly demonstrate true insight into the physics.
Great Book for Intermediate/Advanced Understanding.......2000-05-26
This is an excellent book for those intend to major into Laser Physics with emphasis in practical, theoretical and modelling sides of Laser Physics but I agree that this book would be very tough for those who start learning Physics. But the mathematics is elegant with emphasis on the real world.
I liked this book!.......2000-05-21
I thought this book was an excellent reference. The explanations are clear. I must admit that some equations seem to be inadequately justified, but not to any greater extent than many other undergraduate texts, such as Eisberg and Resnick (the quantum book). This book went into the right amount of mathematical depth for someone like me who just wanted to get the 'big picture' for my thesis and not worry too much about the details. Much, much better than the books by Chow, Koch and Sargent, and Thompson.
I might add that I am a physics major and thus have had considerable background in electromagnetism and quantum mechanics. Perhaps lack of background is why the Stanford engineer felt that the book was too hard.

Book Description
Quantum Kinetics in Transport and Optics of Semiconductors deals with the quantum kinetics for transport in low-dimensional microstructures and for ultrashort laser-pulse spectroscopy. The nonequilibrium Green function theory is described and used for the derivation of the quantum kinetic equations. Numerical methods for the solution of the retarded quantum kinetic equations are discussed and results are presented for quantum high-field transport and for mesoscopic transport phenomena. Quantum beats, polarization decay and non-Markovian behaviour are treated for femtosecond spectroscopy on a microscopic basis.

Book Description
Up-to-date, expert new research in quantum optics and its applications
Coherence and Statistics of Photons and Atoms provides cutting-edge research in modern quantum optics and complete information about systems of interacting photons and atoms based on the quantum statistical properties of such systems. Editor Jan Perina has collected eleven articles from experts around the world to illuminate the changing science of quantum optics and push the development of new, more powerful, applications such as quantum cryptography, quantum computation, and quantum teleportation.
Recent articles highlight the most interesting directions in the development of contemporary quantum optics with important consequences for other physical sciences and their applications. The first chapter presents a basic analysis of quantum electrodynamics, including cavities, followed by chapters devoted to properties of photons and atoms and their interactions in quantum computers. Other articles cover these vital subjects:
* Nonlinear quantum couplers
* Internal correlations in optical pulses
* Detection and reconstruction of quantum states from the point of view of quantum information
* Quantum interference, coherence, and correlation
* Quantum information and teleportation
* Interaction of atoms with squeezed reservoirs
* Quantum statistics and coherence of trapped atoms
* Dynamics of systems of atoms
Coherence and Statistics of Photons and Atoms extends earlier treatments to include up-to-date results and organizes them into a form suitable for further research in the fundamental concepts of quantum optics and in new optical applications. Comprehensive discussions of preparation, transmission, detection, and reconstruction of quantum states, as well as in-depth coverage of quantum computing, make this the most complete source of new information available to students and professionals.
Book Description
The counter-intuitive aspects of quantum physics have been for long illustrated by thought experiments, from Einstein's photon box to Schrodinger's cat. These experiments have now become real, with single particles - electrons, atoms or photons - directly unveiling the weird features of the quantum. State superpositions, entanglement and complementarity define a novel quantum logic which can be harnessed for information processing, raising great hopes for applications. This book describes a class of such thought experiments made real. Juggling with atoms and photons confined in cavities, ions or cold atoms in traps, is here an incentive to shed a new light on the basic concepts of quantum physics. Measurement processes and decoherence at the quantum-classical boundary are highlighted. This volume, which combines theory and experiments, will be of interest to students in quantum physics, teachers seeking illustrations for their lectures and new problem sets, researchers in quantum optics and quantum information.

Exploring the Quantum: Atoms, Cavities, and Photons (Oxford Graduate Texts)
ASIN: 038720802X |
Book Description
This Springer Handbook of Atomic, Molecular, and Optical Physics comprises a comprehensive reference source that unifies the entire fields of atomic, molecular, and optical (AMO) physics, assembling the principal ideas, techniques and results of the field from atomic spectroscopy to applications in comets. Its 92 chapters are written by over 100 authors, all leaders in their respective disciplines.
Carefully edited to ensure uniform coverage and style, with extensive cross references, and acting as a guide to the primary research literature, it is both a source of information and an inspiration for graduate students and other researchers new to the field. Relevant diagrams, graphs, and tables of data are provided throughout the text.
Substantially updated and expanded since the 1996 edition and published in conjunction with the 2005 World Year of Physics (commemorating Einstein’s 1905 "miracle year"), it contains several entirely new chapters covering current areas of great research interest, such as Bose – Einstein condensation, quantum information, and cosmological variations of the fundamental constants. A fully searchable CD-ROM version of the contents accompanies the handbook.
Book Description
This book is aimed at those readers who already have some knowledge of mathematical methods and have also been introduced to the basic ideas of quantum optics. It should be attractive to students who have already explored one of the more introductory texts such as Loudon's The quantum theory of light (2/e, 1983, OUP) and are seeking to acquire the mathematical skills used in real problems. This book is not primarily about the physics of quantum optics but rather presents the mathematical methods widely used by workers in this field. There is no comparable book which covers either the range or the depth of mathematical techniques.

Review of "Methods in theoretical quantum optics".......2001-10-18
I find this book really excellent. It gives a masterly
written introduction to all the most fundamental mathematical
methods in quantum optics. The concepts are introduced very
carefully, all the passages are explained in full detail, and
the discussion is very thorough throghout the book.
The authors gradually and clearly introduce the main
mathematical objects always relating them to basic
interactions and physical situations.
Special care is dedicated to the discussion of the basic
quantum states, number, thermal, coherent and squeezed.
Atomic coherent states and multimode extensions are discussed
as well. In each instance, simple Hamiltonian models
giving rise to the fundamental quantum states are
introduced and analysed in detail; among others,
I find excellent the detailed analysis devoted to the Jaynes--Cummings model, the beam splitter,
and the squeezing Hamiltonian.
Quite a substantial part of the book is dedicated
to the discussion of the statistical properties of the
electromagnetic field, in particular the
characteristic functions
and their associated quasiprobability distributions.
I believe that this book will be very useful both as
an introductory textbook for graduate and advanced
undergraduate students, as well as a reference book
for professionals working in the field of quantum optics
and basic quantum mechanics.
