26. In optics, systems with independent, nonthermal sources similar to Fig. 1 have been used for generation of entanglement; see, e.g., T. B. Pittman and J. D. Franson, Phys. Rev. Lett 90, 240401 (2003) and references therein.
27. For the two-electron (not electron-hole) state considered in Ref. [15], there is no two-particle AB effect.
