摘要: The control of individual quantum systems promises a new technology for the 21st century – technology. This book is first comprehensive treatment modern measurement and measurement-based control, which are vital elements realizing Readers introduced to key experiments technologies through dozens recent in cavity QED, optics, mesoscopic electronics, trapped particles several analyzed detail. Nearly 300 exercises help build understanding, prepare readers research these exciting areas. important will interest graduate students researchers information, metrology, related fields. Novel topics covered include adaptive measurement; realistic detector models; current detection; Markovian, state-based optimal feedback; applications information processing.
