Quantum Mechanics in the Single–Photon Laboratory, 2nd Edition

This book is valuable for laboratory developers, researchers and teachers who would like to recreate a similar suite of experiments for students and early career researchers. These experiments enliven theoretical descriptions of key ideas from quantum information and quantum computing, providing accessible means to generate, manipulate and measure quantum states, and understand their implications for the foundations of quantum mechanics. This new edition features additional experiments related to quantum entanglement and non-local quantum erasure and has restructured previous descriptions. Data processing in an open-source language is described. The appendix on programming FGPAs is considerably enhanced.
