The phenomenon of forming an interference pattern by using light that passed through a double slit is a basic item learnt in a high school physics course. It is a good example that light possesses a ...

The simulation visualizes the intensity distribution of light on a distant screen after passing through one or two narrow slits. This is primarily based on Huygens' principle and the principle of ...

One of the best-known examples of the counterintuitive behavior seen in the quantum world is the double-slit experiment. Take a piece of material that blocks light and cut two small slits in it; hit ...

Quantum interference involving three photons has been measured by two independent teams of physicists. Seeing the effect requires the ability to deliver three indistinguishable photons to the same ...

Bohm’s variation of the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen thought experiment may reveal the path a photon travels in Young’s experiment without causing the interference pattern to disappear. Unlike in Young’s ...
