Abstract

We propose and experimentally implement the delayed-choice decoherence suppression protocol. Using photonic entanglement, we successfully demonstrated that the choice to suppress decoherence can be delayed after decoherence and even after the detection of a qubit.

Experimental demonstration of delayed-choice decoherence suppression

We propose and demonstrate delayed-choice decoherence suppression, where decoherence suppression decision can be delayed after decoherence itself. Our scheme uses delayed quantum measurement for tackling decoherence, and can be applicable to practical quantum information protocols.

Delayed-choice quantum eraser for the undergraduate laboratory

James M. Ashby, Peter D. Schwarz, Maximilian Schlosshauer

In a delayed-choice quantum eraser, interference fringes are obtained by erasing which-way information after the interfering particle has already been irreversibly detected. Following an introductory review of delayed-choice experiments and quantum erasure, we describe the experimental realization of an optical delayed-choice quantum eraser, suitable for advanced undergraduates, based on polarization-entangled pairs of single photons. In our experiment, the delay of the erasure is implemented using two different setups. The first setup employs an arrangement of mirrors to increase the optical path length of the photons carrying which-way information. In the second setup, we use fiber-optic cables to elongate the path of these photons after their passage through the polarization analyzer but prior to their arrival at the detector. We compare our results to data obtained in the absence of a delay and find excellent agreement. This shows that the timing of the erasure is irrelevant, as also predicted by quantum mechanics. The experiment can serve as a valuable pedagogical tool for conveying the fundamentals of quantum mechanics.

A Quantum Delayed-Choice Experiment

Alberto Peruzzo, Peter Shadbolt, Nicolas Brunner +2 more

Delaying Quantum Choice Photons can display wavelike or particle-like behavior, depending on the experimental technique used to measure them. Understanding this duality lies at the heart of quantum mechanics. In two reports, Peruzzo et al. (p. 634 ) and Kaiser et al. (p. 637 ; see the Perspective on both papers by Lloyd ) perform an entangled version of John Wheeler's delayed-choice gedanken experiment, in which the choice of detection can be changed after a photon passes through a double-slit to avoid the measurement process affecting the state of the photon. The original proposal allowed the wave and particle nature of light to be interchanged after the light had entered the interferometer. By contrast in this study, entanglement allowed the wave and particle nature to be interchanged after the light was detected and revealed the quantum nature of the photon, for example, it displays wave- and particle-like behavior simultaneously.
