The complementarity between the interference pattern and the neutron's path through the interferometer is formulated and studied in a quantitative information theoretic way. This leads to an understanding of intermediate cases of partial knowledge of complementary quantities. The role of complementa

β¦ Synopsis
Quantitative understanding of the effects of external forces in three-crystal neutron interferometrv is achieved by realizing that the three-crystal system is in fact an eight-path inlerferometer and not the two-path interfcrometer of previous descriptions. The approach explains damping of the interferometer oscillations ~,silh increasing applied force, even for an ideal unbent crystal and a monochromatic beam.

Entanglement between degrees of freedom, namely between the spin, path and (total) energy degrees of freedom, for single neutrons is exploited. We implemented a triply entangled GreenbergerβHorneβZeilinger(GHZ)-like state and coherently manipulated relative phases of two-level quantum subsystems. An
