Characterizing high-dimensional entangled states is of crucial importance in quantum information science and technology. Recent theoretical progress has been made to extend the Hardys paradox into a general scenario with multisetting multidimensional systems, which can surpass the bound limited by the original version. Hitherto, no experimental verification has been conducted to verify such a Hardys paradox, as most of previous experimental efforts were restricted to two-dimensional systems. Here, based on two-photon high-dimensional orbital angular momentum (OAM) entanglement, we report the first experiment to demonstrate the Hardys paradox for multiple settings and multiple outcomes. We demonstrate the paradox for two-setting higher-dimensional OAM subspaces up to d = 7, which reveals that the nonlocal events increase with the dimension. Furthermore, we showcase the nonlocality with an experimentally recording probability of 36.77% for five-setting three-dimensional OAM subspace via entanglement concentration, and thus showing a sharper contradiction between quantum mechanics and classical theory.

Since the pillars of quantum theory were established, it was already noted that quantum physics may allow certain correlations defying any local realistic picture of nature, as first recognized by Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen. These quantum correlati
ons, now termed quantum nonlocality and tested by violation of Bells inequality that consists of statistical correlations fulfilling local realism, have found loophole-free experimental confirmation. A more striking way to demonstrate the conflict exists, and can be extended to the multipartite scenario. Here we report experimental confirmation of such a striking way, the multipartite generalized Hardys paradoxes, in which no inequality is used and the conflict is stronger than that within just two parties. The paradoxes we are considering here belong to a general framework [S.-H. Jiang emph{et al.}, Phys. Rev. Lett. 120, 050403 (2018)], including previously known multipartite extensions of Hardys original paradox as special cases. The conflict shown here is stronger than in previous multipartite Hardys paradox. Thus, the demonstration of Hardy-typed quantum nonlocality becomes sharper than ever.
As a special experimental technique, weak measurement extracts very little information about the measured system and will not cause the measured state collapse. When coupling the orbital angular momentum (OAM) state with a well-defined pre-selected a
nd post-selected system of a weak measurement process, there is an indirect coupling between position and topological charge (TC) of OAM state. Based on these ideas, we propose an experimental scheme that experimentally measure the TC of OAM beams from -14 to 14 through weak measurement.
Single photons with orbital angular momentum (OAM) have attracted substantial attention from researchers. A single photon can carry infinite OAM values theoretically. Thus, OAM photon states have been widely used in quantum information and fundamenta
l quantum mechanics. Although there have been many methods for sorting quantum states with different OAM values, the nondestructive and efficient sorter of high-dimensional OAM remains a fundamental challenge. Here, we propose a scalable OAM sorter which can categorize different OAM states simultaneously, meanwhile, preserving both OAM and spin angular momentum. Fundamental elements of the sorter are composed of symmetric multiport beam splitters (BSs) and Dove prisms with cascading structure, which in principle can be flexibly and effectively combined to sort arbitrarily high-dimensional OAM photons. The scalable structures proposed here greatly reduce the number of BSs required for sorting high-dimensional OAMstates. In view of the nondestructive and extensible features, the sorters can be used as fundamental devices not only for high-dimensional quantum information processing, but also for traditional optics.
We reveal for the first time a direct relationship between the diffraction of optical beams and their carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM). We experimentally demonstrate a novel phenomenon that the anisotropic diffraction can be induced by the OAM
, predicted by us [Opt. Express, textbf{26}, 8084 (2018)], via the propagations of the elliptic beams with the OAM in linearly and both-linearly-and-nonlinearly isotropic media, respectively. In the former case, when its carrying OAM equals the so-called critical OAM, the spiraling elliptic Gaussian beam (fundamental eigenmode) is observed in the free space, where only the eigenmode with cylindrical-symmetry is supposed to exist for the beam without the OAM. In the latter case, the spiraling elliptic soliton, predicted by Desyatnikov et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett, textbf{104}, 053902 (2010)], is observed to stably propagate in a cylindrical lead glass. The power-controllable rotation of such an elliptic beam is also experimentally demonstrated.
Free-space communication allows one to use spatial mode encoding, which is susceptible to the effects of diffraction and turbulence. Here, we discuss the optimum communication modes of a system while taking such effects into account. We construct a f
ree-space communication system that encodes information onto the plane-wave (PW) modes of light. We study the performance of this system in the presence of atmospheric turbulence, and compare it with previous results for a system employing orbital-angular-momentum (OAM) encoding. We are able to show that the PW basis is the preferred basis set for communication through atmospheric turbulence for a large Fresnel number system. This study has important implications for high-dimensional quantum key distribution systems.
