Experimental certification of the steering criterion based on the local uncertainty relation

Quantum nonlocality is a prominent discrepancy when we compare quantum physics with classical physics, and it manifests in different forms, one of which is quantum steering. Quantum steering refers to a correlation produced from a bipartite entangled state between the local measurement outcomes of one party and the postmeasurement states of the other. Combining with uncertainty relation, local measurements can be used to distinguish whether a quantum state is steerable. Thus, this method can be treated as an effective steering criterion. In this work, we certify this steering criterion based on the local uncertainty relation by an all-optical setup with a mixed state which consists of two Bell-like states. Furthermore, we also testify that the quantum steering criterion based on the local uncertainty relation is not only superior to the linear steering criterion but also superior to the steering criterion based on the entropic uncertainty relation in our scenario. Our efforts may promote the use of this criterion in quantum information processing tasks.
