课程概述

This course gives you access to basic tools and concepts to understand research articles and books on modern quantum optics. You will learn about quantization of light, formalism to describe quantum states of light without any classical analogue, and observables allowing one to demonstrate typical quantum properties of these states. These tools will be applied to the emblematic case of a one-photon wave packet, which behaves both as a particle and a wave. Wave-particle duality is a great quantum mystery in the words of Richard Feynman. You will be able to fully appreciate real experiments demonstrating wave-particle duality for a single photon, 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, which will present more advanced topics such as entanglement, interaction of quantized light with matter, squeezed light, etc... So if you have a good knowledge in basic quantum mechanics and classical electromagnetism, but always wanted to know: • how to go from classical electromagnetism to quantized radiation, • how the concept of photon emerges, • how a unified formalism is able to describe apparently contradictory behaviors observed in quantum optics labs, • how creative physicists and engineers have invented totally new technologies based on quantum properties of light, then this course is for you....

Was very good course I liked it so much and it was definitely benefit for me as i needed this lesson to begin calculation in Quantum optics and understanding better Quantum optics as i come from Micro-Nano Electronic Engineer - photonic Space. Thanks to all Professors and Organisiers who made this possible and had kindness for me as Science has no boundary and spread of it is Great Quest. I have one suggestion Though as I too endeavor in this field for better understanding and progress of the field with limited sources available unfortunately, I suggest that specially homeworks need little corrections and again reviewing the solutions and also some parts of course videos which may have typos which for example can be hurdle in way of understanding for Engineers like me, any way one of best courses i have passed, i thank who have helped this project best hopes for them and i suggest more quantum optical courses as this field had Nobel last year and we should focus more on world scale in this Dream of Humanity, Physics, Engineering and Mathematics.

A very good introductory course for quantum optics. But there are two things I am not so satisfied: first, there is some typo in the video, and it would be better if the professors can add a part for the correction, just like in the last video section of the week 1. Second, for some attached documents (papers), I couldn’t get the access to them since I don’t have an account for those scientific paper websites. So even though the prof highly recommended me to read them, I couldn’t.

All in all, it’s a good introductory course.

The class material is top notch, and the videos are clearly presented and fun! The biggest gap is the leap from the videos to the homework; the material given in the videos isn't nearly sufficient to complete the homework, or sometimes to even begin it. The recommended text would likely cover the gaps, but specific readings from the textbook should be assigned in the modules to enable the learner to tie the lectures to the readings and then apply them to the homework.

More exact usage of English language would help. Also written course material would be great. I ended up buying Mr. Aspect's book because I like the topic so much. A final exam would give a more satisfying feeling. I have the feeling I muddled through on lots of the questions. I am redoing the course now to get "perfect" understanding an memorizing things. Alternatively, a final test could be to write a reaction about a resent article.

The course is really very good. Prof. Aspect exceeds his pedagogic skill and makes the lecture listening delightful. The course focuses in a few concepts that develops step by step to reach a deepper insight.

In my opinion the homework part can be improved. In some cases the statements in the homework are confusing and it is not clear the goal and what the questions ask for

Great teacher and consistent methodology Few typos in the HW and solutions As a stand alone course, the message and outcome might not be very strong. But guess the main purpose was to provide the background for the second part of the course. So I am looking forward

Tres interessant car abordant des questions théoriques et pratiques a la frontière de l'optique quantique. Le cours est toutefois un peu trop dense et mériterait d'être plus aéré en détaillant les étapes intermédiaires du raisonnement et du calcul
