We present a unified view of the Berry phase of a quantum system and its entanglement with surroundings. The former reflects the nonseparability between a system and a classical environment as the latter for a quantum environment, and the concept of geometric time-energy uncertainty can be adopted as a signature of the nonseparability. Based on this viewpoint, we study their relationship in the quantum-classical transition of the environment, with the aid of a spin-half particle (qubit) model exposed to a quantum-classical hybrid field. In the quantum-classical transition, the Berry phase has a similar connection with the time-energy uncertainty as the case with only a classical field, whereas the geometric phase for the mixed state of the qubit exhibits a complementary relationship with the entanglement. Namely, for a fixed time-energy uncertainty, the entanglement is gradually replaced by the mixed geometric phase as the quantum field vanishes. And the mixed geometric phase becomes the Berry phase in the classical limit. The same results can be draw out from a displaced harmonic oscillator model.

Ninety years ago in 1927, at an international congress in Como, Italy, Niels Bohr gave an address which is recognized as the first instance in which the term complementarity, as a physical concept, was spoken publicly [1], revealing Bohrs own thinkin g about Louis de Broglies duality. Bohr had very slowly accepted duality as a principle of physics: close observation of any quantum object will reveal either wave-like or particle-like behavior, one or the other of two fundamental and complementary features. Little disagreement exists today about complementaritys importance and broad applicability in quantum science. Book-length scholarly examinations even provide speculations about the relevance of complementarity in fields as different from physics as biology, psychology and social anthropology, connections which were apparently of interest to Bohr himself (see Jammer [2], Murdoch [3] and Whitaker [4]). Confusion evident in Como following his talk was not eliminated by Bohrs article [1], and complementarity has been subjected to nine decades of repeated examination ever since with no agreed resolution. Semi-popular treatments [5] as well as expert examinations [6-9] show that the topic cannot be avoided, and complementarity retains its central place in the interpretation of quantum mechanics. However, recent approaches by our group [10-13] and others [14-20] to the underlying notion of coherence now allow us to present a universal formulation of complementarity that may signal the end to the confusion. We demonstrate a new relationship that constrains the behavior of an electromagnetic field (quantum or classical) in the fundamental context of two-slit experiments. We show that entanglement is the ingredient needed to complete Bohrs formulation of complementarity, debated for decades because of its incompleteness.
We analyze Einsteins recoiling slit experiment and point out that the inevitable entanglement between the particle and the recoiling-slit was not part of Bohrs reply. We show that if this entanglement is taken into account, one can provided a simpler answer to Einstein. We also derive the Englert-Greenberger-Yasin duality relation from this entanglement. In addition, we show that the Englert-Greenberger-Yasin duality relation can also be thought of as a consequence of the sum uncertainty relation for certain observables of the recoiling slit. Thus, the uncertainty relations and entanglement are both an integral part of the which-way detection process.
We show two experimental realizations of Hardy ladder test of quantum nonlocality using energy-time correlated photons, following the scheme proposed by A. Cabello emph{et al.} [Phys. Rev. Lett. textbf{102}, 040401 (2009)]. Unlike, previous energy-ti me Bell experiments, these tests require precise tailored nonmaximally entangled states. One of them is equivalent to the two-setting two-outcome Bell test requiring a minimum detection efficiency. The reported experiments are still affected by the locality and detection loopholes, but are free of the post-selection loophole of previous energy-time and time-bin Bell tests.

We establish a rigorous quantitative connection between (i) the interferometric duality relation for which-way information and fringe visibility and (ii) Heisenbergs uncertainty relation for position and modular momentum. We apply our theory to atom interferometry, wherein spontaneously emitted photons provide which way information, and unambiguously resolve the challenge posed by the metamaterial `perfect lens to complementarity and to the Heisenberg-Bohr interpretation of the Heisenberg microscope thought experiment.

We prove the uncertainty relation $sigma_T , sigma_E geq hbar/2$ between the time $T$ of detection of a quantum particle on the surface $partial Omega$ of a region $Omegasubset mathbb{R}^3$ containing the particles initial wave function, using the ab sorbing boundary rule for detection time, and the energy $E$ of the initial wave function. Here, $sigma$ denotes the standard deviation of the probability distribution associated with a quantum observable and a wave function. Since $T$ is associated with a POVM rather than a self-adjoint operator, the relation is not an instance of the standard version of the uncertainty relation due to Robertson and Schrodinger. We also prove that if there is nonzero probability that the particle never reaches $partial Omega$ (in which case we write $T=infty$), and if $sigma_T$ denotes the standard deviation conditional on the event $T<infty$, then $sigma_T , sigma_E geq (hbar/2) sqrt{mathrm{Prob}(T<infty)}$.
