Road less travelled: a photon weaves its way through three slits A flaw in how quantum-interference experiments are interpreted has been quantified for the first time by a team of physicists in India.
Quantum coherence, a property of matter that separates the classical from the quantum world, is most clearly demonstrated in a double-slit experiment with single electrons 1. It is based on the ...
The double-slit experiment, first performed by [Thomas Young] in 1801 provided the first definitive proof of the dual wave-particle nature of photons. A similar experiment can be performed that shows ...
