Description for Manipulating Quantum Structures Using Laser Pulses
Hardcover. Presents the theory of quantum-state manipulation and equations which can be applied to complicated multilevel quantum systems, for researchers. Num Pages: 586 pages, 137 b/w illus. BIC Classification: PHJL; PHK. Category: (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 253 x 177 x 31. Weight in Grams: 1290.
The use of laser pulses to alter the internal quantum structure of individual atoms and molecules has applications in quantum information processing, the coherent control of chemical reactions and in quantum-state engineering. This book presents the underlying theory of such quantum-state manipulation for researchers and graduate students. The book provides the equations, and approaches for their solution, which can be applied to complicated multilevel quantum systems. It also gives the background theory for application to isolated atoms or trapped ions, simple molecules and atoms embedded in solids. Particular attention is given to the ways in which quantum changes can be ... Read more
