2025/10/24 - 2025/10/24 Poster presentation titled “Testing Non-Local Realism for Secure Communication” presenting experimental investigations of Bell and Leggett inequality tests using polarization-entangled photon pairs over a 40 km optical fiber link. The work demonstrates violation of the CHSH Bell inequality and explores limitations in testing Leggett-type non-local realistic models due to visibility constraints in the diagonal polarization basis.
