“Fotron – Auto”, Moscow, Russia ix PREFACE In this 60th volume of Progress in Optics, six review articles are presented Chapter 1, contributed by Bertolotti, Bovino, and Sibilia, takes a historical approach to single-photon sources They discuss photon statistics and entangled states Recently developed plasmonic sources and possible applications in quantum information processing are also described In Chapter 2, Alfalou and Brosseau discuss a variety of image processing techniques They compare the more traditional digital approach with newly emerging, all optical setups Because of their parallel nature, these can produce real-time results Chapter 3, by Cartwright and Oughstun, is a continuation of their article in Volume 59 In this second part, they discuss recent developments in the theory of pulse propagation through dispersive media One of these is the extension of the classic Sommerfeld–Brillouin theory to both the weak and singular dispersion limits In Chapter 4, written by Demkowicz-Dobrza nski, Jarzyna, and Kołody nski, the authors describe how nonclassical light states can be used to enhance the performance of optical interferometers This is especially important, for example, for the ongoing search for gravitational waves Chapter is a contribution by Kemp Starting with the Minkowski– Abraham controversy, different expressions for the electromagnetic force density are analyzed This ongoing discussion has direct consequences for the growing number of optical trapping applications The final chapter, Chapter 6, is written by Shvartsburg, Obod, and Volpian They discuss how the classical effect of tunneling through optical barriers takes on new and unexpected forms when the barrier consists of a dielectric gradient metamaterial Because of the scalability of these effects, these also apply to microwave tunneling phenomena in transmission lines It has been my honor to serve as editor of Progress in Optics for over 50 years But, as I used to

quantization of energy to discuss the interaction of electromagnetic radiation with matter was done in 1900 by Planck (1900a, 1900b) Einstein (1905) surmised that also free radiation had a granular structure The name photon was later proposed by Lewis (1926) The quantization of the electromagnetic field was made by Dirac (1926, 1927) A review of some historical papers on the subject has been made by Keller (2007) Progress in Optics, Volume 60 ISSN 0079-6638 http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/bs.po.2015.02.001 # 2015 Elsevier B.V All rights reserved Mario Bertolotti et al What a photon is, exactly nobody can say It is the quantum representation of a mode of the electromagnetic field and is an exclusively quantum concept With this definition, photons have associated plane waves of definite wave vector k and definite polarization s A monochromatic wave implies delocalization in time and space; in practice, a single photon localized to some degree in time and space can be described as superposition of monochromatic photon modes When Glauber (1963a, 1963b) completed the model of radiation detection, discussing from a quantum point of view the interaction of radiation and matter, and constructed a quantum theory of coherence, a number of interesting states of radiation received a full reconnaissance as useful and possible states: among them coherent and single-photon states are perhaps the most interesting, together with squeezed and entangled ones Full description of these states may be found in many excellent textbooks, like, e.g., Mandel and Wolf (1995) The generation of quantum states of the radiation field started to receive great attention from the 1980s Single-photon states, in particular, are studied because of possible applications in quantum communication, quantum lithography, quantum metrology, information processing, and quantum computing, such as quantum random-number generation, quantum networks, secure quantum communications, and quantum cryptography (see, for example, Beveratos, Brouri, et al., 2002; Cerf & Flurasek, 2006; Dusek, Lutkenhas, & Hendrych, 2006; Gisin, Ribordy, Tittel, & Zbinden, 2002; Gisin & Thew, 2007; Grangier & Abram, 2003; Kilin, 2001) For example, the security in some schemes of quantum cryptography is based on the fact that each bit of information is coded on a single photon The fundamental impossibility of duplicating the complete quantum state of a single particle (no cloning theorem; Cerf & Flurasek, 2006; Diecks, 1982; Ghirardi & Weber, 1983; Wootters & Zurek, 1982) prevents any potential eavesdropper from intercepting the message without the receiver’s noticing An ideal single-photon source would produce exactly one photon in a definite quantum state, in contrast with a “classical” source, such as attenuated laser pulses, for which the photon number follows a Poisson distribution A more stringent request would be to have the single-photon generation on demand, that is, at a determined time Additional requests could be room temperature operation, high repetition frequency, high efficient extraction into free space or fiber, good coherence, and Quantum State Engineering Fourier-transformed linewidth Much progress has been made in the years toward such devices, especially in suppressing the probability of two photons in the same pulse Historically, the first experiment with single photons was made using an atomic cascading process in which an excited atomic level decayed with the emission of two photons of different frequencies (Clauser, 1974) The detection of one of them established the presence of the other; we will describe this experiment later In the following, we will give a brief introduction to Fock states, remember the problem of localization of single photons, focus on their antibunching property and photon statistics, and remember the Purcell effect, which allows a control of emission probability We then discuss the preparation of single-photon states, the so-called quantum engineering, the different kinds of single-photon sources, entangled states, plasmonic sources, and applications to quantum information processing The problem of detection is deliberately not treated A number of review papers already exist on the subject such as Moerner (2004), Lounis and Orrit (2005), Oxborrow and Sinclair (2005), Scheel (2009), and Eisaman, Fan, Mugdall, & Polyakov (2011) Quite recently, a Single-Photon Workshop has been held at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, October 15–18, 2013 The presented papers are available to attendees only In the following, we will follow an approximate historical presentation enlightening the single contributions and the evolution of the methods to obtain single-photon sources The survey may not be complete; we apologize for any omission FOCK STATES States with a prescribed number of photons are called number states or Fock states They were first introduced and discussed by Fock (1932) (see also Faddeev, Khalfin, & Komarov, 2004) A Fock state is strictly quantum mechanical and contains a precisely definite number of quanta of field excitation; hence, its phase is completely undefined As well known, the Hamiltonian for the free electromagnetic field can be written as À Á À Á H ~a{ , ~a ¼ ℏω ~a{ ~a + 1=2 (1) Mario Bertolotti et al where ћ is h/2π with h Planck’s constant, ω is the frequency (pulsation) of the field, and a˜ and a˜† are the annihilation and creation operators, respectively They obey the commutation relations  {à  à ~a, ~a ¼ 1; ẵ~a, ~a ẳ ~a{ , ~a{ ẳ (2) The product a˜†a˜ is called the photon number operator n˜ which accounts for the photons in the chosen spatial–temporal mode n~ ¼ ~a{ ~a (3) The eigenstate of the photon number operator n˜ n~jni ¼ njni (4) has a perfectly fixed photon number n Since n˜ is a Hermitian operator, the number n is real If jni is an eigenstate of n˜, then a˜jni must be an eigenstate as well, with the eigenvalue n À In fact, À Á n~~ajni ¼ ~a{ ~a2 jni ¼ ~a~a{ ~a À ~a jni ẳ n 1ị~ajni (5) In a similar way, a˜†jni is an eigenstate of n˜ with eigenvalue n + So there are the fundamental relations ~ajni ¼ √njn 1i (6) ~a{ jni ẳ n + 1ịjn + 1i (7) The prefactors have been obtained using the fact that  {  nj~a ~ajn must be equal to the eigenvalue n The state ~aj0i ¼ exists and it is the vacuum state States with a prescribed number of photons can be created by applying the creation operator to the vacuum state jni ¼ ~a{n =√n!j0i (8) The Fock states must be complete X n¼0 and orthonormal
