Hardback. Editor(s): Angelakis, Dimitris. Series: Quantum Science and Technology. Num Pages: 233 pages, 9 black & white illustrations, 77 colour illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PHJ; PHM; PHQ; TJFD5. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155. .
This book reviews progress towards quantum simulators based on photonic and hybrid light-matter systems, covering theoretical proposals and recent experimental work. Quantum simulators are specially designed quantum computers. Their main aim is to simulate and understand complex and inaccessible quantum many-body phenomena found or predicted in condensed matter physics, materials science and exotic quantum field theories. Applications will include the engineering of smart materials, robust optical or electronic circuits, deciphering quantum chemistry and even the design of drugs. Technological developments in the fields of interfacing light and matter, especially in many-body quantum ... Read more

About Dimitris Angelakis (Ed.)
Dimitris G. Angelakis works in the interface of quantum optics, condensed matter physics, and quantum computation, and more specifically the area of Quantum Simulators, which is understanding and predicting (simulating) the behaviour of matter. His main focus is photonic quantum simulators, an area he co-founded a few years ago, where crystals made of photons mimick the behaviour of crystals made ... Read more
