This work didactically presents the mathematical procedures required for the construction of the creation and annihilation operators for a free quantum particle considering the coordinates of the light cone. For that, the relationships between the aforementioned coordinates and the coordinates (ct, x, y, z) are listed, in addition to the use of the Klein-Gordon-Fock equation in the formalism of the light cone coordinates. Finally, the temporal evolution operator and the quantum operators of creation and annihilation of the integral type of motion are obtained.
