Abstract
Quantum mechanics allows identical particles to lose their individuality completely and become truly indistinguishable. This property of indistinguishability gives rise to exclusive quantum phenomena such as two particle interference. Photon indistinguishability is crucial in realizing many quantum information protocols. This manuscript covers the concepts and applications related to indistinguishable photons.
