The major advances described include the development and implementation of a new technique for THz imaging using atomic fluorescence; the demonstration of a THz-driven phase transition in room-temperature atomic vapour; and a novel method for probing the excited-state dynamics of atoms using quantum beats. The work has formed the basis for several articles published in journals including Nature Photonics and the Physical Review, and has sparked industry interest, becoming the subject of ongoing collaborative research and development. This exceptionally well-written book provides a definitive account of terahertz sensing with Rydberg atomsSummary: Introduction -- Atomic Structure and Atom-light Interactions -- Experimental Methods -- Probing an Excited State Transition Using Quantum Beats -- Intrinsic Rydberg Optical Bistability.-Terahertz Electrometry with Rydberg EIT -- Real-time Near-field Terahertz Field Imaging.-Terahertz-driven Phase Transition in a Hot Rydberg Vapour -- Summary and OutlookPPN: PPN: 1030109001Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-2-PHA | ZDB-2-SEB | ZDB-2-SXP
