The Young's single- and double-slit experiments are explained using six-component quantum and one-component quasi-classical photon wave functions in the coordinate representation, which are modeled by different mechanisms of photon diffraction on slits or simultaneous emission of two photons by (two)...
Electrons could produce double-slit interference and single-slit diffraction just like visible light, but the fluctuations of the electrons should produce an electron wave with a wavelength much longer than the wavelength of the matter wave of electrons, for which experimental evidence is presented in...
1. Single Slit: Slit width is 0.05, 0. 1 and 0.2mm 2. Double Slits: The slit width is 0.05mm, and the distance between 2 slits is 0.2, 0.3, and 0.45mm 3. Round Holes: The diameters of the holes are 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4mm
The observation of interference patterns in double-slit experiments with massive particles is generally regarded as the ultimate demonstration of the quantum nature of these objects. Such matter–wave interference has been observed for electrons1, neutro
I don't know, whether one has ever made the simple double-slit experiment with true single-photon states, but one has done more sophisticated versions like quantum eraser demonstration experiments and the like. What comes out is indeed that you build up a diffraction pattern by shooting man...
The apparent paradox of the double-slit experiment is currently familiar in quantum theory. Feynman called it “the only mystery of quantum mechanics”30. Nevertheless, its implications and deep underlying meaning still captivate one’s imagination. The polariton platform could contribute to this founda...
The double slit experiment (DSE) is known as an important cornerstone in the foundations of physical theories such as Quantum Mechanics and Special Relativity. Alarge number of different variants of it were designed and performed over the years. We perform and discuss here a new version with the...
1 Young’s double-slit experiment with single electrons If you fire single particles, such as photons or electrons, through two slits labelled 1 and 2, the wavefunctions ϕ1 and ϕ2 along each path describe the probability that they will pass through the slits, with the total wavefunctio...
We introduce an event-based corpuscular simulation model that reproduces the wave mechanical results of single-photon double-slit and two-beam interference experiments and (of a one-to-one copy of an experimental realization) of a single-photon interference experiment with a Fresnel biprism. The ...
Re-activating quiescent adult epicardium represents a potential therapeutic approach for human cardiac regeneration. However, the exact molecular differences between inactive adult and active fetal epicardium are not known. In this study, we combined fet
