From Stochastic Optics to theWigner Formalism: The Role of the Vacuum Field in Optical Quantum Communication Experiments

TheWigner formalism in the Heisenberg picture constitutes a bridge that connects Quantum<br />Optics to Stochastic Optics. The vacuum field appears explicitly in the formalism, and the wavelike<br />aspects of light are emphasised. In addition, the zeropoint intensity as a threshold for...
