Delayed choices in atom Stern-Gerlach interferometry

B. J. Lawson-Daku, Rustam M. Asimov, O. Gorceix +3 more

Delayed-choice experiments have been performed using an atomic Stern-Gerlach interferometer operating with a low-intensity beam of metastable hydrogen atoms. By use of a fast-commutable analyzer, it is possible to modify the operating mode of the interferometer while the atom has already entered the device. Various types of delayed-choice experiments have been carried out to check the standard interpretation of quantum-mechanics. Within the experimental accuracy, our results do not show any discrepancy between permanent and delayed-choice operating modes of the interferometer. \textcopyright{} 1996 The American Physical Society.

Incorporating the Stern-Gerlach delayed-choice quantum eraser into the undergraduate quantum mechanics curriculum

William Courtney, Lucas B. Vieira, Paul S. Julienne +1 more

As “Stern-Gerlach first” becomes increasingly popular in the undergraduate quantum mechanics curriculum, we show how one can extend the treatment found in conventional textbooks to cover some exciting new quantum phenomena. Namely, we illustrate how one can describe a delayed choice variant of the quantum eraser which is realized within the Stern-Gerlach framework. Covering this material allows the instructor to reinforce notions of changes in basis functions, quantum superpositions, quantum measurements, and the complementarity principle as expressed in whether we know “which-way” information or not. It also allows the instructor to dispel common misconceptions of when a measurement occurs and when a system is in a superposition of states.
