The virtual course "Quantum Optics 1: individual photons - Virtual Course - Coursera", is a course with different contents and offers video classes of Approx. 33 hours to complete. Explore its essential features, and click the orange button for detailed information on the Coursera e-Learning platform.
This course gives you access to basic tools and concepts to understand research papers and books on modern quantum optics. You will learn about the quantization of light, the formalism to describe the quantum states of light without any classical analogue, and the observables that allow you to demonstrate the typical quantum properties of these states. These tools will be applied to the emblematic case of a packet of waves of a photon, which behaves both as a particle and as a wave. The wave-particle duality is a great quantum mystery in the words of Richard Feynman. He will be able to fully appreciate the actual experiments demonstrating single-photon wave-particle duality and applications to quantum technologies based on single-photon sources, which are now commercially available. The tools presented in this course will be widely used in our second quantum optics course,
