Gathering contributions from globally recognized specialists in electrodynamics and quantum optics, this volume continues the debate on the definition of a photon and the concept of wave-particle duality. After covering the mainstream view of the nature of light and photons, it presents a new and challenging scientific epistemology that explains how to overcome the prevailing paradoxes and confusions arising from the accepted definition of a photon as a monochromatic Fourier mode of the vacuum. It concludes with an array of experiments that demonstrate the innovative thinking needed to examine the wave-particle duality of photons.
Zusatztext "I would be surprised if any reader of the full volume will emerge with their view entirely unmodified! even if perhaps not clarified! by a careful reading of this volume. That is the hallmark of a significant contribution to the scientific literature! and on this basis I warmly recommend it."-Journal of Nanophotonics!

Zusammenfassung
Presents a debate on the definition of a photon and the concept of wave-particle duality. This book presents the view of the nature of light and photons. It presents a scientific epistemology that explains how to overcome the paradoxes and confusions arising from the accepted definition of a photon as a monochromatic Fourier mode of the vacuum.
