"What is coherence and why is it so important?" said Butov. "To start with, modern physics was born by the discovery that all particles in nature are also waves. Coherence means that such waves are all 'in sync.' The spontaneous coherence of the matter waves is the reason behind some of the most exciting phenomena in nature such as superconductivity and lasing."

Wrong. Einstein developed the concept independent of QED.
