Abstract

The complementary principle of quantum mechanics relates qualitatively the visibility of quantum interference with path indistinguishability. Here we propose a scheme of constructive quantum interference involving superposition between an N-photon state and a single-photon state to characterize quantitatively the degree of temporal distinguishability of the N-photon state. This scheme is based on a generalized photon bunching effect. Such a scheme can be extended to other more general cases.

Why This Paper Matters

  • It adds a 2007 reference point for readers tracking recent quantum research.
  • The complementary principle of quantum mechanics relates qualitatively the visibility of quantum interference with path indistinguishability.
