Equipment for Quantum eraser experiment

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion centers around the equipment specifications and purchasing options for conducting a quantum eraser experiment, including pump argon lasers and other necessary components like lenses and crystals.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Technical explanation

Main Points Raised

  • Lux inquires about the full specifications and purchasing options for pump argon lasers used in quantum eraser experiments.
  • Lux also seeks recommendations for suppliers of other experimental equipment, such as lenses and crystals.
  • One participant suggests looking at parts used for a Bell test, indicating that many components may overlap with those needed for the quantum eraser experiment.
  • Another participant recommends a specific article from Scientific American titled "A Do-It-Yourself Quantum Eraser" as a potential resource.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

The discussion does not present any consensus, as participants are sharing resources and suggestions without resolving the initial inquiries about equipment specifications and suppliers.

Contextual Notes

Participants have not provided detailed specifications or specific sources for purchasing the equipment, leaving some assumptions and dependencies on external resources unresolved.

Does anyone know the full specs for those pump argon lasers used in the quantum eraser experiments? We're can I buy a used one?

Also, is there a good place to buy the other equipment (lenses, crystals, etc) needed to perform the experiment?

thanks!

Welcome to PhysicsForums, luxor99!

Not sure if this will help, but it might help to look at the parts used for a Bell test (since a lot of the components will be the same):

Look up the SciAm article "A Do-It-Yourself Quantum Eraser".
 
DrChinese, thanks, that's exactly what I was looking for !
