Entanglement Propagation in Photon Pairs created by Spontaneous Parametric Down-Conversion

Abstract

We experimentally observe the apparent loss and recovery of spatial entanglement during the propagation of photon pairs created in SPDC and understand it as a migration of the entanglement from the intensity to the phase.

Entanglement migration of biphotons in spontaneous parametric down-conversion

We demonstrate theoretically the migration of entanglement of photon pairs produced in spontaneous parametric down-conversion from intensity to phase, and propose two experiments to observe the migration and to detect the ldquomissingrdquo entanglement.

Propagation of two photon states through dispersive media and spectral entanglement migration

Yasser Jerónimo-Moreno, Alfred B. U’Ren

We study entanglement migration between modulus and phase for parametric down- conversion photon pairs which propagate through dispersive media. In addition, we discuss a related dispersion suppression effect which occurs for factorable, highly asymmetric states.

Transverse entanglement migration in Hilbert space

Kam Wai Clifford Chan, Juan P. Torres, Joseph H. Eberly

We show that, although the amount of mutual entanglement of photons propagating in free space is fixed, the type of correlations between the photons that determine the entanglement can dramatically change during propagation. We show that this amounts to a migration of entanglement in Hilbert space, rather than real space. For the case of spontaneous parametric down-conversion, the migration of entanglement in transverse coordinates takes place from modulus to phase of the biphoton state and back again. We propose an experiment to observe this migration in Hilbert space and to determine the full entanglement.

Generation of polarization entanglement utilizing spatially correlated photon pairs from spontaneous parametric down-conversion

T. Yamaguchi, Ryōsuke Shimizu, Yasuyoshi Mitsumori +2 more

Polarization entanglement of photons provides a superior environment to demonstrate quantum info-communication protocols. Thus far, several methods using parametric down-conversion process have been realized to generate polarization-entangled photon pairs. In this report, we propose a novel method to generate polarization entanglement from spatially correlated photon pairs and demonstrate its experimental verification.
