A detailed understanding of the basic physical laws governing the exchange of quantum information, as well as the interaction between material qubits and the quantized electromagnetic field, is of central importance for realizing quantum information networks and for suppressing decoherence due to spontaneous emission of photons. In this section, some basic physical aspects of this interaction are explored in the special case of ...
