Exploring Quantum Foundations with Single Photons

This thesis uses high-precision single-photon experiments to shed new light on the role of reality, causality, and uncertainty in quantum mechanics. The final experiment in this thesis demonstrates a novel uncertainty relation for joint quantum measurements, where the textbook relation does not apply.

Aceasta teza utilizeaza experimente de inalta precizie cu un singur foton pentru a arunca o noua lumina asupra rolului realitatii, cauzalitatii si incertitudinii in mecanica cuantica. Experimentul final din aceasta teza demonstreaza o noua relatie de incertitudine pentru masuratori cuantice comune, in care relatia manual nu se aplica.
