• Title: Quantitative Complementarity of Wave-Particle Duality
• Authors: Tai Hyun Yoon and Minhaeng Cho
• Abstract summary: We show that the source purity $mu_s$ is tightly bounded by the entanglement measure $E$ by the relation $mu_s=sqrt1-E2 $ and the visibility $V$ and detector fidelity $F$ determine the coherence of the quantons. The quantitative complementarity of the double-path interferometer we developed recently is explained in terms of the quanton entanglement or quanton source purity.

• Abstract: To test the principle of complementarity and wave-particle duality quantitatively, we need a quantum composite system that can be controlled by experimental parameters. Here, we demonstrate that a double-path interferometer consisting of two parametric downconversion crystals seeded by coherent idler fields, where the generated coherent signal photons are used for quantum interference and the conjugate idler fields are used for which-path detectors with controllable fidelity, is useful for elucidating the quantitative complementarity. We show that the source purity $\mu_s$ is tightly bounded by the entanglement measure $E$ by the relation $\mu_s=\sqrt{1-E^2 }$ and the visibility $V$ and detector fidelity $F$ determine the coherence of the quantons, i.e., $C = V|F|$. The quantitative complementarity of the double-path interferometer we developed recently is explained in terms of the quanton-detector entanglement or quanton source purity that are expressed as functions of injected seed photon numbers. We further suggest that the experimental scheme utilizing two stimulated parametric downconversion processes is an ideal tool for investigating and understanding wave-particle duality and complementarity quantitatively.

  We study the decoherence of a system of $N$ non-interacting heavy particles (atoms) due to coherent scattering with a background gas. We introduce a framework for computing the induced phase shift and loss of contrast for arbitrary preparations of $N$-particle quantum states. We find phase shifts that are inherently $(Ngeq 2)$-body effects and may be searched for in future experiments.
