Light (optics); Quantum physics (quantum mechanics & quantum field theory)

Series: IOP ebooks

This book is valuable for laboratory developers, researchers and teachers who would like to recreate a similar suite of experiments for students and early career researchers. These experiments enliven theoretical descriptions of key ideas from quantum information and quantum computing, providing accessible means to generate, manipulate and measure quantum states, and understand their implications for the foundations of quantum mechanics. This new edition features additional experiments related to quantum entanglement and non-local quantum erasure and has restructured previous descriptions. Data processing in an open-source language is described. The appendix on programming FGPAs is considerably enhanced.

Key Features:

Worked examples showing basic calculations for computing probabilities from projective measurements, the effect of unitary operators on states, and computing density matrices, expectation values, fidelities, and purities. An intuitive description of ideas from quantum information and quantum optics. Correlating experimental data, which is statistical in nature, with predictions of quantum optical theory. Experiments can be virtually recreated using data from real experiments to manipulate, compute and plot expectation values, errors, density matrices etc. Each chapter begins with an introduction and discusses the placement of the chapter’s material in the wider scheme.

Muhammad Sabieh Anwar is Professor of Physics at the Syed Babar Ali School of Science and Engineering, LUMS. He is also General Secretary of the Khwarizmi Science Society (http://www.khwraizmi.org) aimed at awakening a spirit of meaningful science education in the Pakistani society, has founded the PhysLab, a regional platform for research infused physics education and finally, he loves to teach. Muhammad Hamza Waseem is pursuing a DPhil in Physics at the University of Oxford. His current research spans quantum foundations and quantum science education. Hamza regularly contributes to science outreach events in Pakistan and the UK. He also works as a Research Scientist at Quantinuum, and teaches mathematics and physics at various institutions within the University of Oxford. Faizan-e-Ilahi is a graduate student of Physics at LUMS. During his undergraduate studies he helped to build the Single Photon Quantum Mechanics Laboratory at LUMS. He is currently working in magneto-optics. His areas of interest are quantum information and open quantum systems. He is inspired by the works and lectures of Leonard Susskind. Other than that, he is interested in Urdu and Persian literature and likes to study political philosophies and dystopian literature. Syed Bilal Hyder earned his BS in Physics from LUMS Syed Babar Ali School of Science and Engineering as an NOP scholar. After graduating, he joined PhysLab (https://www.physlab.org) as a full-time researcher and undertook multiple projects to upgrade the single-photon laboratory. His research interests lie in quantum communication and quantum computing architecture.
