Perpetual generation of two-photon quantum beats
Abstract
We consider a recursive device that is based on a Mach-Zehnder interferometer and linear optical elements which allow self-feedback through multiple internal reflection of radiation between two parallel arrays of opposite faced mirrors. By a carefully chosen experimental arrangement and for certain input states it is possible to observe at the open ends of the device time generated coherent superpositions in perpetuum.
