RE: The Double-Slit experiment

I actually disagree that the photodector detects photons as particles. A photodetector detects energy. it doesn't count the particles, if that's what you were thinking. In this case specifically electromagnetic energy. The "energy" of the laser is actually specified as 5 mW or whatever. If the power of the light falls below a pre-determined level the light fails to be detected, thus attempting to prevent reflected stray light from affecting results. Besides both quantum dots and CD lasers emit coherent light and coherence is a property of waves, not particles, no?
