A connection between quantum theory and information theory proved

EurekAlert  December 6, 2024 Wave-particle duality is one of the most notable and counterintuitive features of quantum mechanics, illustrating that two incompatible observables cannot be measured simultaneously with arbitrary precision. An international team of researchers (Sweden, Chile, Poland) experimentally demonstrated the equivalence of wave particle duality and entropic uncertainty relations using orbital angular momentum states of light. Their experiment used a reconfigurable platform composed of a few-mode optical results providing fundamental insights into the complementary principle from an informational perspective, with implications for the broader field of quantum technologies… read more.
