Gaussian and non-Gaussian multimode entangled states of optical frequency combs (Conference Presentation)

Nicolas Treps

Optical Gaussian entangled states can be generated deterministically, up to very large number of modes. Furthermore, for nontrivial quantum computation, non-Gaussianity is required, which can be obtained from photon subtraction. We will explore here the controlled generation of multimode graph states from ultrafast optical pulses (optical frequency combs) and parametric down conversion in a synchronously pumped cavity, investigating in particular spectral shaping of the pump. Mode dependent photon subtraction is then implemented through sum-frequency generation, and characterization is performed through frequency resolved homodyne detection. We study the influence of a non Gaussian ingredient on a Gaussian graph state.

Recent advances in high-dimensional quantum frequency combs

High-dimensional entanglement in qudit states offers a promising pathway towards the realization of practical, large-scale quantum systems that are highly controllable. These systems can be leveraged for various applications, including advanced quantum information processing, secure communications, computation, and metrology. In this context, quantum frequency combs have a crucial role as they inherently support multiple modes in both temporal and frequency domains, while preserving a single spatial mode. The multiple temporal and frequency modes of quantum frequency combs facilitate the generation, characterization, and control of high-dimensional time-frequency entanglement in extensive quantum systems. In this review article, we provide an overview of recent technological advancements in high-dimensional energy-time entangled quantum frequency combs. We explore how these time-frequency qudits, achieved using scalable telecommunications-wavelength components, can empower the creation of large-scale quantum states. Advances in quantum frequency combs can unlock new capabilities and versatility for promising developments in quantum science and technology.
