Abstract: We examine a covariant quantization of electromagnetic fields by using an operator derived from a constant scalar that can be called extended Lorentz gauge. The quantization can avoid an inconsistency between Lorentz gauge and a commutation relation, which can eliminate the need for introduction of physical state defined by a subsidiary condition and auxiliary field in Lagrangian density in Lorentz gauge. By using this quantization and indefinite metric straightforwardly, all quantum phenomena can be provided without enigmatic and paradoxical "probability interpretation".
