Sinossi

The physics of strong light-matter coupling has been addressed in different scientific communities in the last 3 decades. Since the early eighties, atoms coupled to optical and microwave cavities have led to pioneering demonstrations of cavity quantum electrodynamics, Gedanken experiments, and building blocks for quantum information processing that was awarded a Nobel Prize in Physics in 2012. In the framework of semiconducting devices, strong coupling has made possible investigations into the physics of Bose gases in solid-state environments, and holds the promise of exploiting light-matter interaction at the single photon level in scalable architectures. More recently, impressive developments in the so-called superconducting circuit QED have opened another fundamental playground to revisit cavity quantum electrodynamics for practical and fundamental purposes.This book aims at developing the necessary interface between these communities, by providing future researchers with a robust conceptual, theoretical and experimental basis on strong light-matter coupling, both in the classical and in the quantum regimes. In addition, a close focus will be on the new forefront research topics currently developed around the physics of strong light-matter interaction in the atomic and solid state scenario, such as strong coupling regime without a cavity, ultrastrong coupling, or strong coupling in polaritonic systems.

Recensione

The style of writing is refreshing clear. Theoretical arguments and derivations remain short yet comprehensible. The editors have clearly put in effort to provide a coherent and appreciable book. The brevity of each chapter and successful juggling of theoretical concepts with recent experimental advances makes this book an excellent reference guide for readers new to this field and active researchers alike. --Contemporary Physics
