Of special interest, a single photon state is explained by using a wave picture, showing that it corresponds to the complementarity of a quantum. Also explained is how light waves are created by photons, again corresponding to the complementarity of a quantum. The author shows how an optical wave is created by superposition of a \"vacuum\" and a single photon as a typical example. Moreover, squeezed states of light are explained as \"longitudinal\" waves of light and Schrödinger's cat states as macroscopic superposition states.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2015-12-18\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9784431559580\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-4-431-55960-3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 104\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Japan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46547627966604,"sku":"9784431559580","price":71.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9784431559580.jpg?v=1775835677","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9784431559580","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
