Coherence interpretation of the noninterfering Sagnac-based quantum correlation

Abstract: Bell inequality violation is a quantitative measurement tool for quantum entanglement. Quantum entanglement is the heart of quantum information science, in which the resulting nonlocal correlation between remotely separated photons shows a unique property of quantum mechanics. Here, the role of coincidence detection is coherently investigated for the nonlocal correlation in a simple polarization-basis selective non-interferometric system using entangled photon pairs (Phys. Rev. A 73, 012316 (2006)). The resulting nonlocal quantum feature between two independent local polarizers is coherently derived for the joint-parameter relation of the inseparable intensity product. The resulting coherence solution based on the wave nature of quantum mechanics is thus understood as a deterministic process via coincidence detection-caused measurement modification.
