Coherent energy, or coherence, is energy which binds things together in a body or substantial form and shape. It is derived from physics, in particular optics, quantum mechanics and electromagnetism. An exact definition is given by spectroscopic methods. For example, to paraphrase Wolkowski, two sinusoidal oscillations of the same frequency arc are said to be mutually coherent if they exhibit a constant phase relationship during the course of time. Coherence of phenomena in radiation fields may, according to Popp, "occur at all levels of field amplitudes and for all bandwidths including a continuous spectrum." (1986, p. 213).

"the concept of coherence finds wide applications and yields novel results in context with multiple problems as they arise in biology, and these include, for example, long-range resonant cellular effects and resonant interactions of biological tissues with low-intensity electrornagnetic radiations" Zbigniew William Wolkowski

Coherent energy is a fundamental aspect of quantum computing which requires engineering systems that exert quantum-mechanical coherence control. In the words of Advanced Research and Development Activity (ARDA).

"This required control runs counter to the tendency of the essential quantum properties of quantum systems to degrade with time (“decoherence”)" (ARDA 2004: p.7).

The generalization of the conventional concept of error-correction in a quantum computer involves the correction of decoherence (ibid p.9).
