Abstract: We report on a quantum optical experimental implementation of teleportation of unknown pure quantum states. This realizes all the nonlocal aspects of the original scheme proposed by Bennett et al. and is equivalent to it up to a local operation. We exhibit results for the teleportation of a linearly polarised state and of an elliptically polarised state. We show that the experimental results cannot be explained in terms of a classical channel alone.
