Experimental observation of spatial antibunching of photons
arXiv:quant-ph/0206039 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.86.4009
Abstract
We report an interference experiment that shows transverse spatial antibunching of photons. Using collinear parametric down-conversion in a Young-type fourth-order interference setup we show interference patterns that violate the classical Schwarz inequality and should not exist at all in a classical description.
