The orbital angular momentum states of light have been used to relate quantum uncertainty to wave–particle duality. The ...

This concept, named the photon, for which Einstein was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1921, marked a turning point in our understanding of light and matter. The wave-particle duality means that entities ...

Researchers from Linköping University together with colleagues from Poland and Chile have confirmed a theory that proposes a ...

Researchers have confirmed the theory of wave-particle duality in light, validating the link between the complementarity ...

The theory dates back to the 17th century when Isaac Newton suggested that light is composed of particles. Read further on ...

With the help of a new experiment, researchers have succeeded in confirming a ten-year-old theoretical study, which connects one of the most fundamental aspects of quantum mechanics -- the ...

New research confirms that a photon's wave and particle nature can't be fully observed simultaneously due to entropic ...
