Quantum Networks with Optical Frequency Combs

Abstract

We demonstrate the single-step fabrication of a quantum network from the parametric downconversion of femtosecond frequency combs. Ultrafast pulse shaping is employed to both characterize the comb’s spectral entanglement and generate on-demand cluster state.

Observation of scalable, highly multimode entanglement in frequency combs with ultrafast pulse shaping

Jonathan Roslund, R. Medeiros de Araújo, Claude Fabre +1 more

Cluster states, in which entanglement is distributed amongst numerous parties, have attracted interest due to their role as a resource for measurement-based quantum computing. The traditional means for fabricating these highly-entangled states has been to sequentially combine the squeezed outputs from individual optical parametric oscillators (OPO) with a network of phase-shifters and beamsplitters. While successful, this approach demands an optical footprint commensurate with the dimensionality of the produced state. Within the continuous-variable regime, a promising alternative is to begin with a source that is intrinsically multimode. Toward that end, the frequency comb underlying femtosecond optical pulses contains upwards of ~ 105individual frequencies, which makes it an attractive starting point for the production of multipartite entanglement. This work demonstrates the ability of OPOs synchronously pumped by a femtosecond pulse train to create scalable, adaptable multipartite photonic states in a single beam while exploiting femtosecond pulse shaping to perform a complete state analysis.
