Quantum Delayed-Choice Experiment with a Beam Splitter in a Quantum Superposition

Quantum Delayed-Choice Experiment with a Beam Splitter in a Quantum Superposition

A quantum system can behave as a wave or as a particle, depending on the experimental arrangement. When, for example, measuring a photon using a Mach-Zehnder interferometer, the photon acts as a wave if the second beam splitter is inserted, but as a particle if this beam splitter is omitted. …
