Bell's Inequalities for Continuous Variable Systems and Their Maximal Violation

  • 27 September 2001
Abstract
We generalize Bell's inequalities to biparty systems with continuous quantum variables. This is achieved by introducing the Bell operator in perfect analogy to the usual spin-1/2 systems. It is then demonstrated that two-mode squeezed vacuum states display quantum nonlocality by using the generalized Bell operator. In particular, the original Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen entangled states, which are the limiting case of the two-mode squeezed vacuum states, can maximally violate Bell's inequality due to Clauser, Horne, Shimony and Holt. The experimental aspect of our scheme and nonlocality of arbitrary biparticle entangled pure states of continuous variables are briefly considered.
