Fundamental phenomena of quantum mechanics explored with neutron interferometers

Abstract

Ongoing fascination with quantum mechanics keeps driving the development of the wide field of quantum optics, including its neutron optics branch. Application of neutron-optical methods and, in particular, neutron interferometry and polarimetry has a long-standing tradition for experimental investigations of fundamental quantum phenomena. We give an overview of related experimental efforts made in recent years. © The Author(s) 2014.
