"Researchers at Xiamen University used sunlight to generate correlated photon pairs for quantum imaging. The system uses an automatic sun-tracker and nonlinear crystals, eliminating the need for lasers. The technology could enable quantum imaging in remote or space-based environments."
Author: Marlan O. Scully and M. Suhail Zubairy
This classic textbook provides the fundamental theoretical framework for understanding photon correlation, non-linear optics, and the quantum nature of light, which are essential to grasping how sunlight can be utilized for quantum imaging.
