随着量子信息和相关技术的到来，越来越需要让学生做好量子物理基础的准备。基本的物理原理可以被量子力学的数学形式主义所隐藏。因此，有必要让学生进行说明基本原理的实验。基于自发参量下转换产生双光子的量子光学实验具有简单、可靠、成本合理等优点。这些类型的实验是物理课程中高级实验室的理想选择。在高露洁大学，我们以实验室包的形式提供它们，这与我们的量子力学本科高级课程有关。在这篇文章中，我们介绍了我们的最新方法。其中有一种新的布局，为实验提供了更直观的物理画面。
With the coming of quantum information and associated technologies, there is increasing need to prepare students on the fundamentals of quantum physics. Fundamental physical principles can be hidden by the mathematical formalism of quantum mechanics. Thus it is necessary to expose students to experiments that illustrate fundamentals. Quantum optics experiments based on the generation of twin photons via spontaneous parametric down-conversion have many advantages, such as being simple, reliable, and of reasonable cost. These types of experiments are ideal for the advanced laboratory in the physics curriculum. At Colgate University we offer them as a laboratory package that is associated with our upper-level undergraduate course on quantum mechanics. In this article we present our latest approaches. Among them is a new layout for the experiments to provide a more intuitive physical picture.
