Although the formal definition of nonclassicality is known for several decades, there has been a lack of simple and complete criteria to check nonclassicality. In this work, some criteria are compared. Then, so-called nonclassicality quasiprobabilities are introduced, which allow a full examination of nonclassicality for any quantum state. Finally, some issues of the relation between nonclassicality and entanglement are discussed. All concepts are illustrated with experimental data. %L 530 %9 theses %9 Text %9 Hochschulschrift %U http://rosdok.uni-rostock.de/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:de:gbv:28-diss2011-0145-7 %U http://rosdok.uni-rostock.de/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:de:gbv:28-diss2011-0145-7&pdf %U http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:28-diss2011-0145-7
