Scientists at the University of Oxford are utilising the quantum quirks of light to study how single photons could be used to provide un-hackable data protection, quantum computers and powerful microscopes. This activity is suitable as a follow-on lesson after students have studied Young's double slit experiment. It asks them to interpret data from a single photon double slit experiment as an introduction to quantum theory.
Learning outcomes
- Students write predictions and conclusions using data.
- Students describe what the single photon double slit experiment shows about the nature of light.
