Delayed-choice gedanken experiments and their realizations

X Ma, J Kofler, A Zeilinger - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2016 - APS
The wave-particle duality dates back to Einstein's explanation of the photoelectric effect
through quanta of light and de Broglie's hypothesis of matter waves. Quantum mechanics …

Duality of quantum coherence and path distinguishability

MN Bera, T Qureshi, MA Siddiqui, AK Pati - Physical Review A, 2015 - APS
We derive a generalized wave-particle duality relation for arbitrary multipath quantum
interference phenomena. Beyond the conventional notion of the wave nature of a quantum …

A quantum delayed-choice experiment

A Peruzzo, P Shadbolt, N Brunner, S Popescu… - Science, 2012 - science.org
Quantum systems exhibit particle-or wavelike behavior depending on the experimental
apparatus they are confronted by. This wave-particle duality is at the heart of quantum …

Asking photons where they have been

A Danan, D Farfurnik, S Bar-Ad, L Vaidman - Physical review letters, 2013 - APS
We present surprising experimental evidence regarding the past of photons passing through

Agnostic phase estimation

X Song, F Salvati, C Gaikwad, N Yunger Halpern… - Physical Review Letters, 2024 - APS
The goal of quantum metrology is to improve measurements' sensitivities by harnessing
quantum resources. Metrologists often aim to maximize the quantum Fisher information …

Quantum erasure with causally disconnected choice

XS Ma, J Kofler, A Qarry, N Tetik… - Proceedings of the …, 2013 - National Acad Sciences
The counterintuitive features of quantum physics challenge many common-sense
