Spatially structured photons that travel in free space slower than the speed of light

Abstract

Slowing down light with added structure: We are taught that the speed of light in free space is one of the universal physical constants: c. Giovannini et al. now show that there are certain conditions under which such certainty can be broken (see the Perspective by Sambles). Adding spatial structure to an optical beam of single photons reduced the speed of light. The magnitude of the decrease depended on the complexity of the structure imprinted onto the photons.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • For N=2, the N00N state is realized by two indistinguishable photons incident on both input ports of a 50:50 BS, resulting in HOM interference.

    “For the case of N = 2 [36,37], we recognize the state from Eq. ( 5) where two indistinguishable photons are made incident onto both input ports of a 50:50 BS, resulting in HOM interference.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
