Interactive Screen Experiments with Single Photons

European Journal of Physics, v30 n2 p345-353 Mar 2009
Single photons are used for fundamental quantum physics experiments as well as for applications. Originally being a topic of advance courses, such experiments are increasingly a subject of undergraduate courses. We provide interactive screen experiments (ISE) for supporting the work in a real laboratory, and for students who do not have access to a quantum optics laboratory. The main focus of the ISE is on undergraduate education, but some of the experiments are suitable for other levels of higher education as well. (Contains 6 figures and 3 footnotes.)
