    Abstract: A method and arrangement for producing a hologram of an object uses light, having photon packets, to illuminate the object and to serve as a reference light. Each photon packet includes a plurality of photons correlated in a quantum-mechanical manner and jointly form a multi-photon Fock state. Some of the photon packets may be used for illuminating the object, and some may be used as a reference light. Photon packets arriving from the object may be made to interfere with the reference light in an interference field, and the brightness distribution in the interference field or a part thereof may be registered by a detector. A light source emitting a plurality of mutually coherent rays of photon packets may be used for generating the packets, some of the rays being used for illuminating the object, and some of the rays being used as a reference light or for forming same.
