This is the first book to cover a new and rapidly developing research field in physics. Miniaturized solid state structures confining light, called microcavities, give rise to new devices which exploit the quantum physics of light matter interactions. Series: Series on Semiconductor Science & Technology. Num Pages: 608 pages, 239 b/w illustrations and 45 colour illustrations. BIC Classification: PHFC; PHJ; PHM; TJFD5. Category: (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 234 x 156. . . 2017. 2nd Edition. Hardcover. . . . .

About the Author
Jeremy J. Baumberg FRS directs a UK Nano-Photonics Centre at the University of Cambridge and has extensive experience in developing optical materials structured on the nano-scale that can be assembled in large volume. He is also Director of the Cambridge Nano Doctoral Training Centre. Strong experience with Hitachi, IBM, his own spin-offs Mesophotonics and Base4, as well as strong industrial engagement give him a unique position to combine academic insight with industry application in a two-way flow. With over 15000 citations, he is a leading innovator in NanoScience. This has led to awards of the Royal Society Rumford Medal (2014), IoP Young Medal (2013), Royal Society Mullard Prize (2005), the IoP Charles Vernon Boys Medal (2000) and the IoP Mott Lectureship (2005). He frequently talks on NanoScience to the media, and is a strategic advisor on NanoTechnology to the UK Research Councils.
Guillaume Malpuech received an engineering degree from École Centrale de Lyon in 1998, and a PhD in Physics from University Blaise Pascal (UBP) in 2001, Habilitation Thesis (2005). Between 2002-2012 he was a CNRS researcher at LASMEA -- Joint Unity of CNRS and UBP. Since 2005 he has been head of the group of Quantum Optoelectronics at LASMEA. Since 2012 he has been Senior CNRS researcher at the Institut Pascal, and since 2015 head of the Photon department of the institute. He is a known theoretician in the field of polaritonics with a large collaborative activity with leading experimental groups. He worked on polariton based optoelectronic devices, spinor quantum fluids of light, photonic analogues of cosmologic and solid state systems.
F.P. Laussy is head of the quantum polaritonic group at the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid (Spain) where he leads the research efforts as the PI of various projects (POLAFLOW, SQUIRREL, CLAQUE). He graduated from Université Blaise Pascal in 2005, after which he obtained post-doc experience in Sheffield, Madrid and Southampton. He was a Marie Curie fellow at the Technische Universität München. He made seminal and pioneering descriptions of microcavity polaritons in their Bose-Einstein condensation, superfluidity, and superconductivity. His research groups recently proposed two new kinds of lights, one quantum -- a laser of N-photon states, emitting all its light in packets of N photons with tunable integer N, -- and the other classical -- Full-Poincaré temporal beams, or pulses of light taking all the states of polarization.
