On occasion of the 50-year anniversary of the first demonstration of the laser (actually on the 16 May 1960), "Nature Milestones" highlights key discoveries in optics, which are based on the photon:
A timeline is presented with small but compact articles to the different milestones. It presents a fast but interesting overview/ introduction over many important discoveries which are today everywhere used in optics. It is really worth to read it. If I am not wrong, I think the articles are even open access. You can either read it directly on the page or as pdf:
