13 Conclusion Quantum and wave optics BS theories are in global agreement. They both describe a ±π/ phase shift between transmitted/reflected electric fields Quantum physics is a macroscopic "black-box" model Classical optics evidences a multi-interference effect 4 th -order interference (HBT) experiments show anticorrelation of BS outputs (GRA) Quantum physics Interpretation confirms photon existence Can also be explained with classical wave optics model including the ±π/ phase shift Future work on other interference experiments Mach-Zehnder, Hong-Ou-Mandel Conf. 957 The Nature of Light: What are Photons?
