Summary |
---|
The aim of this subject is to make students acquainted with fundamental physical principles and experimental realizations of modern quantum technology, fundamentals of quantum physics and optics, make easy the understanding between the group and individual behavior of photons and electrons and their consequences for communications and information processing. |
Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit |
---|
Understand the fundamentals of quantum effects for function of optical components and following applications in quantum communication systems.
Learning outcomes are set so that the students are able to identify and apply the simple tasks in the field of quantum communications and information processing.
