Birth Of Quantum Holography: Holograms From Single Photon

The Birth of Quantum Holography: Making Holograms of Single Light Particles!

Science Daily | July 18, 2016



Until quite recently, creating a hologram of a single photon was believed to be impossible due to fundamental laws of physics. However, scientists have now successfully applied concepts of classical holography to the world of quantum phenomena. A new measurement technique has enabled them to register the first ever hologram of a single light particle, thereby shedding new light on the foundations of quantum mechanics.
