精彩书摘

In this book we present the basic ideas needed to understand how laser lightinteracts with various forms of matter. Among the important consequencesis an understanding of the laser itself. The present chapter summarizes clas-sical electromagnetic fields, which describe laser light remarkably well. Thechapter also discusses the interaction of these fields with a medium con-sisting of classical simple harmonic oscillators. It is surprising how well thissimple model describes linear absorption, a point discussed from a quantummechanical point of view in Sect. 3.3. The rest of the book is concernedwith nonlinear interactions of radiation with matter. Chapter 2 generalizesthe classical oscillator to treat simple kinds of nonlinear mechanisms, andshows us a number of phenomena in a relatively simple context. Starting withChap. 3, we treat the medium quantum mechanically. The combination of aclassical description of light and a quantum mechanical description of matteris called the semiclassical approximation. This approximation is not alwaysjustified （Chaps. 13-19）, but there are remarkably few cases in quantum op-tics where we need to quantize the field.

前言/序言

　　This book grew out of a 2-semester graduate course in laser physics and quan-tum optics. It requires a solid understanding of elementary electromagnetismas well as at least one, but preferably two, semesters of quantum mechanics.Its present form resulted from many years of teaching and research at theUniversity of Arizona, the Max-Planck-Institut fiir Quantenoptik, and theUniversity of Munich. The contents have evolved significantly over the years,due to the fact that quantum optics is a rapidly changing field. Because theamount of material that can be covered in two semesters is finite, a numberof topics had to be left out or shortened when new material was added. Im-portant omissions include the manipulation of atomic trajectories by light,superradiance, and descriptions of experiments.

　　这样，自从1927年春天以来，人们就有了一个量子论的前后一致的解释，它常常被称为“哥本哈根解释”。1927年在布鲁塞尔举行的索尔维（Solvay）会议上，这个解释接受了严峻的考验。对那些总是导致最坏的佯谬的实验全都再三地在所有细节上作了讨论，特别是爱因斯坦。人们还设想了一些新的理想实验去探索理论的任何可能的不一致性，但是这个理论被证明为前后一致的，并且对于人们所知道的一切实验，看来都是符合的。
