Abstract

We demonstrate, using standard telecommunication components, the creation and manipulation of frequency entangled effective qubits that exhibit nonlocal interferences in the frequency domain, violating the CHSH inequality by more than 40 standard deviations.

Manipulating Frequency Entangled Photons

Laurent Olislager, Johann Cussey, Anh Tuan Nguyen +4 more

A parametric down conversion source pumped by a monochromatic laser will produce frequency entangled photon pairs. We demonstrate this by an experiment in which five-dimensional frequency entanglement is manipulated at telecommunication wavelengths using commercially available components such as electro-optic phase modulators and narrowband frequency filters. A theoretical intuition for this approach is developed by introducing the notion of frequency bin entanglement. We conclude by showing that using this method one can in principle violate the CHSH, the CGLMP, and a new – as yet unnamed – Bell inequalities.

Generation and coherent manipulation of complex quantum states based on integrated frequency combs

Stefania Sciara, Michael Kues, Christian Reimer +11 more

The investigation and use of integrated frequency comb sources (i.e. featured by equally-spaced discrete spectral modes) have recently provided a unique framework to address the challenges of generation and coherent manipulation of complex quantum states in on-chip devices. We exploit integrated frequency combs for generating entangled photon pairs, as well as multi-photon states, and high-dimensional (D-level, i.e. quDit) entangled photons. In particular, we manage to coherently manipulate such complex quantum systems by using telecommunications components (standard fiber telecom).

Exploiting a frequency-domain approach, we demonstrate the generation of high-dimensional entangled quantum states with a Hilbert-space dimensionality larger than 100 from an on-chip nonlinear microcavity, and introduce a coherent control platform using standard telecommunications components.

Creating and manipulating entangled optical qubits in the frequency domain

Radio-frequency phase modulation of frequency-entangled photons leads to a two-photon interference pattern in the frequency domain. In recent experiments, the pattern was measured with narrow-band frequency filters which select photons belonging to a given frequency bin. Here we show how photons can be grouped into even and odd frequencies by using periodic frequency filters called interleavers. In our theoretical analysis we show how this reduces the high-dimensional photon state to an effective two-dimensional state. This is of interest for applications such as quantum cryptography or low-dimensional tests of quantum nonlocality. We then report an experimental realization of this proposal. The observed two-photon interference pattern and violation of the CHSH inequality---the simplest binary-outcome Bell inequality---are in good agreement with the theoretical predictions.
