Title Quantum Theory of Near-Field Electrodynamics Author(s) Keller, Ole Publication Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2011. Description XXVI, 670 p : online resource Abstract Note Quantum Theory of Near-field Electrodynamics gives a self-contained account of the fundamental theory of field-matter interaction on a subwavelength scale. The quantum physical behavior of matter (atoms and mesoscopic media) in both classical and quantum fields is treated. The role of local-field effects and nonlocal electrodynamics, and the tight links to the theory of spatial photon localization are emphasized. The book may serve as a reference work in the field, and is of general interest for physicists working in quantum optics, mesoscopic electrodynamics and physical optics. The macroscopic and microscopic classical theories form a good starting point for the quantum approach, and these theories are presented in a manner appropriate for graduate students entering near-field optics ISBN,Price 9783642174100 Keyword(s) 1.
