| Sumario: | "Quantum physics is rapidly emerging as a transformative approach to expand the frontiers of technology in areas including communications, information processing, metrology, and sensing. Indeed, the end of Moore's Law looms in the near future and quantum effects in modern electronics such as quantum tunneling are a limiting factor. In contrast, in new technology based on quantum behavior, the quantum properties represent a new dimension of opportunity. This shift is already creating a growing need for engineers and physical scientists who have specialized knowledge in this area, in order to contribute to the growing effort. There are numerous outstanding textbooks available for a general approach to the field of quantum physics. There is much to be gained by taking the traditional learning approach, but it can take two or three years before students encounter many of the exciting ideas and tools for this area. This book takes an application-motivated approach to enable students to build a quantum toolbox. The first six chapters describe the quantum states of various systems of interest, while the remaining chapters focus mainly on dynamics. Important concepts like the quantum flip-flop, based using Rabi oscillations, and engineering the quantum vacuum are presented. Powerful tools including the atomic operator approach and density matrix operator are introduced with examples of applications. This book is aimed at upper level undergraduates and some first year graduate students. The book is arranged to fulfil the needs for a one-semester or two-semester sequence. For a one-semester sequence, the preface describes several paths that emphasize different aspects of quantum behavior"--Publisher's description. |
