Foton melipat ganda tanpa batas saat dipantulkan sebagian oleh cermin cepat

Sebuah studi teoretis baru menunjukkan bahwa upaya untuk membagi foton dengan cermin yang bergerak cepat menciptakan superposisi dari foton yang tak terhingga banyaknya, alih-alih memperpendek partikel aslinya.

Para peneliti yang dipimpin oleh Johannes Skaar di Universitas Oslo meneliti apa yang terjadi ketika sebuah foton bertemu dengan cermin yang bergerak cukup cepat untuk hanya memantulkan sebagian dari ekor gelombangnya. Persamaan kuantum untuk medan elektromagnetik mengungkapkan bahwa interaksi tersebut menghasilkan keadaan yang mencampurkan foton yang tak terhingga banyaknya akibat fluktuasi dalam vakum kuantum.
