Abstract

By utilizing two-qudit SUM gates between time and frequency degrees of freedom in photons, we demonstrate a high-dimensional non-separable state between two degrees of freedom of photonic states, and realize a four-party 32-dimensional GHZ state. © 2019 The Author(s)

Generation of a non-separable two-qudit state using a time-frequency SUM operation

Poolad Imany

We demonstrate a deterministic two-qudit SUM gate with up to 16-dimensional qudits encoded in the time and frequency degrees of freedom of a single photon. Using this SUM gate, we generate non-separable time-frequency qudit states.

Qudit W and Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger states on a two-photon chip

High-dimensional quantum entangled states exhibit unique properties. While generalizations like qudit Bell, Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ), and Cluster states have been studied, the qudit W states remain underexplored. We discover that a superposition of qudit Dicke states can serve as high-dimensional generalizations of W states, demonstrating their enhanced robustness against qudit loss, and present linearly scalable quantum circuits for their generation. Using a programmable silicon-photonic entanglement generator, we first theoretically and experimentally demonstrate the generation of 3-ququart GHZ and W states using two photons and one ancillary ququart, with fidelities of 0.932 ± 0.009 and 0.901 ± 0.012, respectively. Genuine multipartite entanglement of the GHZ state and the improved resilience of the W state are confirmed. Our findings provide new insights and efficient approaches for qudit-based quantum science and technologies.

Four-Photon Transverse Mode Entanglement

We show experimental evidence of quantum entanglement of 4 photons in their spatial degrees of freedom. A large fraction of the photons produced by single-pass spontaneous parametric downconversion are in the 4-particle, 3-dimensional Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) state.

Heralding Higher-Dimensional Bell and Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger states using multiport splitters

Daniel Bhatti, Stefanie Barz

Abstract One of the most important resources for quantum optical experiments and applications are on-demand highly entangled multiphoton quantum states. A promising way of generating them is heralding entanglement generation at a high rate from letting independent photons interfere. However, such schemes often work for a specific internal degree of freedom of the interfering photons only. Going to higher numbers of entangled photons, the success probabilities decrease while the number of necessary resources, e.g. auxiliary photons and optical elements, increases. To make probabilistic schemes feasible also for larger quantum states, it is therefore important to find resource-efficient generation schemes with high success probabilities. In this work, we introduce easily implementable schemes to herald qubit Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ) states, higher-dimensional Bell states and higher-dimensional three-party GHZ states. Our schemes solely rely on multiphoton interference, i.e. they can be adjusted to work for arbitrary degrees of freedom. Furthermore, they demonstrate high success probabilities and need comparably few auxiliary photons.

Entanglement purification for arbitrary multipartite high-dimensional Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger state

Yu-Qing Kong, Jia-Ye Liu, Hui-Hui Kong +1 more

High-dimensional qudit (i.e., $d$-level or $d$-state) systems outperform two-dimensional qubit (i.e., 2-level or 2-state) systems in some quantum information processing tasks. We exploit entanglement purification protocols (EPPs) for extracting a subset of high quality arbitrary $d$-dimensional $n$-partite Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) states from a large set of less entangled GHZ states. In our protocols, qudit-flip and phase-flip errors can be corrected, and the fidelity of the output state can be asymptotically improved to unity by iterating the EPP process. Moreover, the schemes are immune to the number of polluted photons, the fidelity thresholds of the proposed EPPs are developed, and the spatial-based single-qudit operations can be well manipulated with a range of balanced beam splitters, and phase shifters. These features make the proposed schemes offer an alternative method for high-dimensional multipartite entanglement purification.
