An Introduction to Quantum Optics: Photon and Biphoton Physics 2nd Edition

這段文字提供了對光量子理論的完整修訂，包括重要的發展以及基本理論和概念呈現的改進，並持續強調實驗方面的重要性。作者對經典和量子力學測量的基本方法提供了詳盡的概述。

Yanhua Shih is professor of physics at the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC), where he started the Quantum Optics Laboratory of UMBC in the fall of 1989. He received his PhD in 1987 from the Department of Physics, University of Maryland, College Park. His group has been recognized as among the leaders in the field of quantum optics that attempts to probe the foundations of quantum theory. His pioneering research on multiphoton entanglement, multiphoton interferometry, and quantum imaging has been recognized by the physics and engineering communities. Yanhua Shih received the Willis Lamb Medal in 2002 for his pioneer contributions to quantum optics and especially the study of coherence effects of multi-photon entangled states.

燕華·史是馬里蘭大學巴爾的摩縣分校（UMBC）的物理學教授，他於1989年秋季在UMBC開設了量子光學實驗室。他於1987年從馬里蘭大學學院公園分校物理系獲得博士學位。他的研究小組被認為是量子光學領域的領導者之一，該領域試圖探索量子理論的基礎。他在多光子纏繞、多光子干涉和量子成像方面的開創性研究獲得了物理學和工程界的認可。燕華·史於2002年獲得威利斯·蘭姆獎，以表彰他對量子光學特別是多光子纏繞態相干效應研究的開創性貢獻。
