Quantum Interference and Coherence: Theory and Experiments

For the first time, this book assembles in a single volume accounts

of many phenomena involving quantum interference in optical fields

and atomic systems. It provides detailed theoretical treatments and

experimental analyses of such phenomena as quantum erasure, quantum

lithography, multi-atom entanglement, quantum beats, control of

decoherence, phase control of quantum interference, coherent

population trapping, electromagnetically induced transparen…
