Full Description
This book is an exceptional high-level work that delves into the timely research of quantum information with single photons. Dr. Teodor Strömberg in particular studied a variety of topics of indefinite causal order in quantum mechanics including techniques to create and characterize such processes more efficiently. It is one of the best structured and most pedagogically written theses he has read. Dr. Strömberg skillfully explains the basics of theory a photonics, gradually introducing more advances theoretical concepts and experimental methods, culminating in cutting-edge research findings. The quality of his thesis is as well highlighted by its extensive length, exceeding 300 pages (excluding reprints and additional materials), dedicated thoroughly explaining the theory and related experimental implementation.
