Coherence and Fluctuations in Light-Matter Interactions (Physics)

相干和涨落现象的实验研究 在激光和光的非线性光学相互作用中， 继续 对具有可饱和吸收体的激光器的研究将 研究光与物质相互作用中的涨落现象。 一个新 该项目的一个组成部分已被添加到研究不稳定性 以及非线性光学过程中的涨落。 这些研究 将在次/二次谐波过程中进行 量子统计的重点 电磁场的性质。 这些实验将 探索非平衡系统的新的运行机制， 将为今后研究的相互作用奠定基础， 光的量子态的简单原子系统。

Experimental studies of coherence and fluctuation phenomena in lasers and nonlinear optical interactions of light matter will continue. Studies of the laser with a saturable absorber will study fluctuation phenomena in light-matter interactions. A new component to the project has been added to study instabilities and fluctuations in nonlinear optical processes. These studies will be carried out in the processes of sub/second harmonic generation with the emphasis on the quantum statistical properties of the electromagnetic field. These experiments will probe novel regimes of operation of nonequilibrium systems and will lay the groundwork for future studies of the interaction of simple atomic systems with quantum states of light.
