The simulation and analysis of a hyperentangled photon source based on polarization and transverse momentum are achieved using the MATLAB platform. The analysis includes determining the emission pattern of a spontaneous parametric down-conversion source and the opening angles of emission cones and their dependence on wavelength. The energy conservation in the generation process and the correlations between the hyperentangled states are investigated. The results show that the generated states are maximally entangled, and Bell's inequality test is proven to satisfy the theoretical limits. The proposed model gives better insight into the generation process of hyperentangled photons. It could be integrated with simulations of any arbitrary system based on a hyperentangled source.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
