Biphoton frequency comb (BFC) having quantum entanglement in a high dimensional system is widely applicable to quantum communication and quantum computation. However, a dozen mode realized so far has not been enough to realize its full potential. Her e, we show a massive-mode BFC with polarization entanglement experimentally realized by a nonlinear optical waveguide resonator. The generated BFC at least 1400 modes is broad and dense, that strongly enhances the advantage of BFC. We also demonstrated a versatile property of the present BFC, which enables us to prepare both the frequency-multiplexed entangled photon pair and the high dimensional hyperentangled one. The versatile, stable and highly efficient system with the massive-mode BFC will open up a large-scale photonic quantum information platform.
NOON states are path entangled states which can be exploited to enhance phase resolution in interferometric measurements. In the present paper we analyze the quantum states obtained by optical parametric amplification of polarization NOON states. Fir st we study, theoretically and experimentally, the amplification of a 2-photon state by a collinear Quantum Injected Optical Parametric Amplifier (QIOPA). We compared the stimulated emission regime with the spontaneous one, studied by Sciarrino et al. (PRA 77, 012324), finding comparable visibilities between the two cases but an enhancement of the signal in the stimulated case. As a second step, we show that the collinear amplifier cannot be successfully used for amplifying N-photon states with N>2 due to the intrinsic lambda/4 oscillation pattern of the crystal. To overcome this limitation, we propose to adopt a scheme for the amplification of a generic state based on a non-collinear QIOPA and we show that the state obtained by the amplification process preserves lambda/N feature and exhibits a high resilience to losses. Furthermore, an asymptotic unity visibility can be obtained when correlation functions with sufficiently high order M are analyzed.
We discuss chromatic constructions on orthogonality hypergraphs which are classical set representable or have a faithful orthogonal representation. The latter ones have a quantum mechanical realization in terms of intertwined contexts or maximal obse rvables. Structure reconstruction of these hypergraphs from their table of two-valued states is possible for a class of hypergraphs, namely perfectly separable hypergraphs. Some examples from exempt categories that either cannot be reconstructed by two-valued states or whose set of two-valued states does not yield a coloring are presented.
Phase modulation has emerged as a technique to create and manipulate high-dimensional frequency-bin entanglement. A necessary step to extending this technique to depolarized channels, such as those in a quantum networking environment, is the ability to perform phase modulation independent of photon polarization. This also necessary to harness hypertanglement in the polarization and frequency degrees of freedom for operations like Bell state discrimination. However, practical phase modulators are generally sensitive to the polarization of light and this makes them unsuited to such applications. We overcome this limitation by implementing a polarization diversity scheme to measure frequency-bin entanglement in arbitrarily polarized photon pairs.
In this work, we experimentally manipulate the spectrum and phase of a biphoton wave packet in a two-dimensional frequency space. The spectrum is shaped by adjusting the temperature of the crystal, and the phase is controlled by tilting the dispersiv e glass plate. The manipulating effects are confirmed by measuring the two-photon spectral intensity (TSI) and the Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM) interference patterns. Unlike the previous independent manipulation schemes, here we perform joint manipulation on the biphoton spectrum. The technique in this work paves the way for arbitrary shaping of a multi-photon wave packet in a quantum manner.
