Physicists Have Captured the Image of Quantum Entanglement for the First Time

University of Glasgow

In order to capture the image of bell entanglement, physicists have created a system to emit a stream of entangled photons on a quantum light source they call an "unconventional object". Some objects are displayed on liquid crystal materials, which can change the phase of photons. They can be passed through. When a camera capable of detecting photons recognizes that one photon is entangled with another, it is set to capture a picture.

According to researchers, quantum entanglement is one of the main pillars of quantum mechanics. This concept has been used in practical applications such as quantum computing and cryptography, but no one has successfully captured its actual image. Physicists involved in the project believe that this image will help promote the field of quantum computing and may produce new types of imaging.
