Clarity

[edit]

In the 1950s to the 1970s the field was seen as what has now become the part of quantum optics that draws not from atomic physics but from solid-state physics.

To this educated Englishman, this sentence is completely devoid of meaning.

Solid State Physics and Electrons

[edit]

"Solid-State Physics regularly takes Quantum Mechanics into account, and is usually concerned with electrons."

I'm a little uncertain about the above quote for the following reasons:

  • A lot of work copes pretty well with semi-classical models.
  • The second part ("is usually concerned with electrons") is a bit unclear. Phonons are a good example of Solid-State Physics, not concerned with electrons.

Can anyone think of a more accurate replacement for this sentence? --djsik 11:08, 10 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Quantum electronics

[edit]

I'm interested in quantum electronics, but this page only talks about its loss of focus because of its migration in to simular subjects but nothing about quantum electronics itself. Seb-Gibbs (talk) 13:59, 10 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
