Delayed-choice quantum erasure using Poisson-distributed photons.
2023 14th International Conference on Information and Communication Technology Convergence (ICTC)(2023)
摘要
Quantum superposition lies at the core of quantum mechanics and has been applied to various quantum technologies. Over the past few decades, Wheeler’s delayed-choice thought experiment has been extensively examined to explore the wave-particle duality of the complementary nature of quantum mechanics. The essence of the delayed-choice quantum eraser lies in the contradictory quantum property that violates the cause-effect relationship in classical physics. Our experiments present empirical evidence of the quantum eraser using coherent photon pairs provided in a noninteracting Mach-Zehnder interferometer for the polarization-basis control of output photons. The observed interference fringe is the direct proof of the quantum eraser, where the violation of the cause-effect relationship is due to the selective choices of the measurement events.
