Until very recently, two-photon interaction processes have been considered only as arising from second- or higher-order effects in driven systems, and so limited to extremely small coupling strengths. However, a variety of novel physical…

A ray of photons, emitted from a laser source, is in a coherent state, where macroscopic number of photons are degenerate in the same quantum state. The coherent state has degrees of freedom for spin and orbital angular momentum, which…
