Abstract

The spatial properties of laser beams can be used to encode, transfer and detect quantum information into high order modes with high efficiency. We demonstrate the use of such states, including spatial squeezing and entanglement.

Transport of Multimode Entangled Photons through Optical Fibers

W. Löffler

We review multi-mode fiber transport of coherent mode superpositions that is essential for distribution of high-dimensional quantum information encoded in light’s spatial variables; and explore new quantum state manipulation schemes using optical fibers.

Spatial multimode entanglement within one laser beam

Jiří Janoušek, K. Wagner, J-F. Morizur +4 more

Optical entanglement is a key requirement for many quantum communication protocols. Conventionally entanglement is formed between two distinct beams, with the quantum correlations being measured at separate locations. We show entanglement between the modes within one beam. Our technique is particularly elegant and a major advance towards practical systems with minimum complexity. We demonstrate three major experimental achievements: (i) only one source is required to produce squeezed light in two orthogonal spatial modes, (ii) the entanglement is formed through lenses and beam rotation, without the need of a beam splitter and (iii) the quantum correlations are measured directly and simultaneously using a multi pixel, quadrant detector.

Entangling spatial modes within a single beam

Jiří Janoušek, K. Wagner, Jean‐François Morizur +4 more

In this paper, simple demonstration was presented to produce and measure entanglement, all within a single beam. Accessing and manipulating the expanded basis of transverse spatial modes makes this technology an interesting contender for optical quantum protocols.

Tools for Multimode Quantum Information: Modulation, Detection, and Spatial Quantum Correlations

Mikael Lassen, V. Delaubert, Jiří Janoušek +7 more

We present the key elements required for continuous variable parallel quantum information protocols based on spatial multimode quantum correlations. We describe techniques for encoding, combining and detecting spatial quantum information with high efficiency in the individual transverse modes. Until now, the missing feature for the implementation of such protocols was the generation of squeezing in higher order transverse Hermite-Gauss modes. We experimentally demonstrate squeezing in selective modes by fine-tuning the phase matching condition of the nonlinear chi(2) material and the cavity resonance condition of an optical parametric amplifier. Combined, these results open the way to practical multimode optical quantum information systems.

Entangled light beams from four-wave mixing carry spatial information

Not only do the beams display correlations in their quantum fluctuations, but so do different parts of them when examined separately.
