摘要
Coincidence detections are measured between the output ports of a beam splitter whose input is an orthogonally polarized two-photon state produced in type-II spontaneous parametric down-conversion. When the delays between the two optical paths leading to each detector are varied by two spatially separated Pockel cells, a two-photon interference effect is seen that highlights a simultaneous entanglement in both spin and space-time variables. In contrast to all previous experimental tests of Bell's in- equalities, which have utilized states entangled with respect to only one type of observable, the double entanglement realized here allows the demonstration of two different types of Bell inequality violations in one experimental setup. © 1995 The American Physical Society.
