Hologram of a single photon pp576 - 579 Radosław Chrapkiewicz, Michał Jachura, Konrad Banaszek and Wojciech Wasilewski doi:10.1038/nphoton.2016.129 The local amplitude and phase of a single photon is retrieved using a method similar to classical holography. The interference of optical fields is replaced by the non-classical interference of spatially varying two-photon probability amplitudes. |

Resolved-sideband Raman cooling of an optical phonon in semiconductor materials pp600 - 605 Jun Zhang, Qing Zhang, Xingzhi Wang, Leong Chuan Kwek and Qihua Xiong doi:10.1038/nphoton.2016.122 Raman cooling and heating of a longitudinal optical phonon with a 6.23-THz frequency are observed in ZnTe nanobelts. The direction of the energy flow is changed by detuning the frequency of the pump laser.
