Hardcover. This book provides the building blocks for continued exploration of quantum optics in previously inaccessible regimes and more complex simulations of natural phenomena at the quantum frontier. Sebastian Saner carried out ground-breaking experimental research in quantum optics, with important applications to quantum computing and simulation. The story of quantum technology, now the subject of multi-billion dollar government and private investments around the globe, is one of ever more exquisite control over quantum systems such as individual spins and quantum harmonic oscillators. Typically, such systems are controlled individually, or one is used to mediate interactions in another. Instead, Sebastian Saner demonstrated a new regime of control that puts both quantum systems on an equal footing, using systems of one or two individual trapped atomic ions whose internal states represent qubits, and whose motion is an harmonic oscillator. The author used this hybrid system to perform an astonishingly diverse range of world-first demonstrations: the first quantum logic gates driven by a standing-wave laser field (which can potentially be much faster than previous gates); the first achievement of arbitrary superposition states of squeezed harmonic oscillator states; and the first observation of real-time dynamics of a simple lattice gauge theory, including Aharonov-Bohm interference. The story of quantum technology, now the subject of multi-billion dollar government and private investments around the globe, is one of ever more exquisite control over quantum systems such as individual spins and quantum harmonic oscillators.

The author used this hybrid system to perform an astonishingly diverse range of world-first demonstrations: the first quantum logic gates driven by a standing-wave laser field (which can potentially be much faster than previous gates); the first achievement of arbitrary superposition states of “squeezed” harmonic oscillator states; and the first observation of real-time dynamics of a simple lattice gauge theory, including Aharonov-Bohm interference.

About the Author
Dr. Sebastian Saner is a quantum physicist specialising in quantum computing with hybrid qubit–oscillator systems. He completed his DPhil at the University of Oxford, where he developed novel quantum control techniques for such hybrid systems. His research enables versatile quantum operations, the generation of a new family of non-classical superposition states, and the simulation of previously inaccessible quantum phenomena.

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 CitiRetail, Stevenage, United Kingdom, 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.
