Experimental Bell inequality violation with an atom and a photon.

Phys Rev Lett

FOCUS Center and Department of Physics, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109-1120, USA.

Published: August 2004

We report the measurement of a Bell inequality violation with a single atom and a single photon prepared in a probabilistic entangled state. This is the first demonstration of such a violation with particles of different species. The entanglement characterization of this hybrid system may also be useful in quantum information applications.
