Quantum 'yin-yang' shows two photons being entangled in real-time

A yin-yang-like shape made of pink and green dots shows two particles in a state of quantum entanglement

Scientists have used a first-of-its-kind technique to visualize two entangled light particles in real time — making them appear as a stunning quantum "yin-yang" symbol.

The new method, called biphoton digital holography, uses an ultra high-precision camera and could be used to massively speed up future quantum measurements. The researchers published their findings Aug. 14 in the journal Nature Photonics.
