Please recommend me some good books which will help me to study these topics in physics masters course .

Classical field theory: L & H formulations, eqns of motion,symmetries & invariance, noether's theorem

Field quantization:fock space decomposition, canonical quantization of real scalar field,complex scalar field, interpretation of quantized field

Radiation field : maxwell field, gauge invariance,canonical quantization using radiation gauge, ambiguities in quantization,their removal & lorentz gauge quantization

Dirac spinor field & its quantization , spontaneous symmetry breaking,goldstone model, higgs model

Applications : interaction of radiation with matter, plankcs law, Kramer Heisenberg formula , coherent & raman scattrng, theory of line width, elementary theory of photoelectric effect, non relativistic theory of lamb shift.

I would recommend

Greiner & Reinhardt, Field Quantization. It has a gentler learning curve than many other QFT books and includes many solved exercises.
