Developing and Characterizing Sources of Quantum States of Light: from Single Photons to Million-Photon Fock States
One of the central goals of quantum optics is the generation and control of quantum states of light. Chief among these states are Fock states, the fundamental eigenstates of the electromagnetic Hamiltonian with a perfectly-defined photon number. Decades of research have been devoted to producing Foc...
