摘要
It has often been remarked that single-photon interference experiments, however complicated, seem to behave very much in the same way as those performed in the classical regime, using the field generated by a laser. This observation has the status of being 'well-known to those who know it', but perhaps mysterious to others. We discuss the reasons underlying the similarity and also some of the limitations of this simple idea.
