Time reversal symmetry in optics

Optics 2012-05-08 v1 Quantum Physics

Abstract

The utilization of time reversal symmetry in designing and implementing (quantum) optical experiments has become more and more frequent over the past years. We review the basic idea underlying time reversal methods, illustrate it with several examples and discuss a number of implications.
