摘要
A proposal to demonstrate the nonlocality of a single photon is described; This is accomplished without using inequalities, and in a way that brings out a very curious feature of quantum mechanics. Unlike the first proposal to investigate the nonlocality of a single photon due to Tan, Walls, and Collett, this proposal does not require supplementary assumptions, and therefore rules out the whole class of local hidden variable interpretations.
