Quantum correlations are contextual yet, in general, nothing prevents the existence of even more contextual correlations. We identify and test a noncontextuality inequality in which the quantum violation cannot be improved by any hypothetical postquantum theory, and use it to experimentally obtain correlations in which the fraction of noncontextual correlations is less than 0.06. Our correlations are experimentally generated from the results of sequential compatible tests on a four-state quantum system encoded in the polarization and path of a single photon.
量子关联是语境相关的,但通常情况下,并没有什么能阻止更具语境相关性的关联的存在。我们识别并测试了一个非语境不等式,其中量子违反不可能通过任何假设的后量子理论得到改善,并利用它实验获得了关联,其中非语境关联的分数小于 0.06。我们的关联是通过在单个光子的偏振和路径中编码的四态量子系统的连续兼容测试的结果实验产生的。
