Entanglement swapping of spectrally-entangled photons is experimentally demonstrated. Idler photons from independent entangled pairs are jointly detected after a beamsplitter and frequency filters, projecting the signal photons onto a frequency-bin singlet state.

Heralding Multiple Photonic Pulsed Bell Pairs via Frequency-Resolved Entanglement Swapping

Sofiane Merkouche, Valérian Thiel, Alex O. C. Davis +1 more

Entanglement is a unique property of quantum systems and an essential resource for many quantum technologies. The ability to transfer or swap entanglement between systems is an important protocol in quantum information science. Entanglement swapping between photons forms the basis of distributed quantum networks. Here an experiment demonstrating entanglement swapping from two independent multimode time-frequency entangled sources is presented, resulting in multiple heralded frequency-mode Bell states. Entanglement in the heralded states is verified by measuring conditional anticorrelated joint spectra and quantum beating in two-photon interference. Our experiment heralds up to five orthogonal Bell pairs within the same setup, and this number is ultimately limited only by the entanglement of the initial sources.

Entanglement swapping for generation of heralded time-frequency-entangled photon pairs

Dashiell L. P. Vitullo, Michael G. Raymer, Brian J. Smith +3 more

Photonic time-frequency entanglement is a promising resource for quantum information processing technologies. We investigate swapping of continuous-variable entanglement in the time-frequency degree of freedom using three-wave mixing in the low-gain regime with the aim of producing heralded biphoton states with high purity and low multipair probability. Heralding is achieved by combining one photon from each of two biphoton sources via sum-frequency generation to create a herald photon. We present a realistic model with pulsed pumps, investigate the effects of resolving the frequency of the herald photon, and find that frequency-resolving measurement of the herald photon is necessary to produce high-purity biphotons. We also find a trade-off between the rate of successful entanglement swapping and both the purity and quantified entanglement resource (negativity) of the heralded biphoton state.
