1. Quantum states of light -- 1-1 Quantum optics -- 1-2 Coherent states -- 1-3 Balanced homodyne measurements -- 1-4 Single-photon state -- 1-5 Fock states -- 1-6 Super position of a vacuum and a single photon -- 1-7 Coherent states and Schrodinger's cat states -- 1-8 Wigner function -- 1-9 Super position of a vacuum and a two-photon state -- 1-10 Squeezed states -- 1-11 Squeezing operation -- 1-12 Quantum entanglement -- 2. Generation of quantum states of light -- 2-1 Generation of coherent states -- 2-2 Generation of squeezed states -- 2-3 Generation of a single-photon state -- 2-4 Generation of Schrodinger's cat states -- 2-5 Generation of superposition of Fock states -- 2-6 Generation of quantum entanglement -- 3. Quantum operations for quantum states of light -- 3-1 Various quantum operations -- 3-2 Quantum teleportation -- 3-3 Quantum gate teleportation.

This book explains what quantum states of light look like. Of special interest, a single photon state is explained by using a wave picture, showing that it corresponds to the complementarity of a quantum. Also explained is how light waves are created by photons, again corresponding to the complementarity of a quantum. The author shows how an optical wave is created by superposition of a "vacuum" and a single photon as a typical example. Moreover, squeezed states of light are explained as "longitudinal" waves of light and Schrodinger's cat states as macroscopic superposition states.
