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. . . . . Books ship from the US and Ireland.

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.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Kennys Bookstore, Olney, Maryland, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
