Abstract

We generate orbital angular momentum entangled states by spontaneous parametric down-conversion with a pump as a superposition of optical vortices. The generated entangled states are tuned by controlling the mixing of vortices in the superposition.

Maximizing the Dimensionality of Orbital Angular Momentum Entanglement in Parametric Down-conversion

Jacquiline Romero, Daniel Giovannini, Filippo M. Miatto +2 more

The process of spontaneous parametric down-conversion is a dependable source of high-dimensional orbital angular momentum-entangled bi-photon states. We observe, analyze and maximize the number of orbital angular momentum modes produced by the down-conversion nonlinear crystal and detected by our measurement apparatus.

We study the entangled photon orbital angular momentum states generated in spontaneous parametric downconversion and predict that highly noncollinear geometries lead to apparent orbital angular momentum violations.

We investigate the orbital angular momentum correlation of a photon pair created in a spontaneous parametric down-conversion process. We show how the conservation of the orbital angular momentum in this process results from phase matching in the nonlinear crystal.

Engineering the orbital angular momentum spectrum of down-converted photons using a mode-invariant pump

Abstract In this work, we investigate the orbital angular momentum (OAM) spectrum of photons generated via spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) and study how shaping the transverse profile of the pump beam influences the resulting spectrum. Using a perfect optical vortex (POV) mode as the pump, we show that the OAM spectrum narrows significantly, leading to purer OAM states. We further examine the entanglement between the down-converted photons in the OAM basis, finding that Laguerre–Gaussian (LG) pumped photons exhibit increased higher-dimensional entanglement at the expense of mode purity.
