Quantum scattering theory of Fock states in high-dimensional spaces

Optics 2016-09-21 v1 Quantum Physics

Abstract

A quantum scattering theory is developed for Fock states scattered by two-level systems in the free space. Compared to existing scattering theories that treat incident light semi-classically, the theory fully quantizes the incident light as Fock states. This non-perturbative method provides exact scattering matrix.
