Projection of Two Biphoton Qutrits onto a Maximally Entangled State

Abstract: Bell state measurements, in which two quantum bits are projected onto a maximally entangled state, are an essential component of quantum information science. We propose and experimentally demonstrate the projection of two quantum systems with three states (qutrits) onto a generalized maximally entangled state. Each qutrit is represented by the polarization of a pair of indistinguishable photons-a biphoton. The projection is a joint measurement on both biphotons using standard linear optics elements.

“…For example, mode-entanglement [79][80][81], i.e. entanglement in the particle-number degree of freedom, is not subject to the bound, as well as schemes in which qudits are carried by several particles instead of a single one [53,[82][83][84] or techniques that exploit ancillaparticles [8,85]. An extension of our framework that explicitly incorporates these methods may shade light on their potential and quantify their advantage with respect to the paradigm that we considered here.…”

“…The presence of a photon in a mode is usually ensured by detection of the particle, which destroys the state; but also non-destructive, heralded preparation is possible with additional auxiliary photons [43]. Besides entanglement generation via propagation and post-selection, also the projection onto entangled states and the detection of entangled states is possible [18,53], which permits, e.g., to transfer photonic entanglement to massive particles [54].…”

“…Such an efficient solution is presented in this article for the teleportation of the quantum information carried by an arbitrary number d of photonic levels. A different solution to challenge(ii) for qutrits (d = 3) can be found in [38]. An alternative teleportation scheme for general qudits based on quantum scissors together with a comparison to the present scheme is reported in [39].…”

“…In this paper, we will focus on the optical system and consider how to generate entangled qudit efficiently. There are many qudit definitions in optical systems, what we concern is the polarization degree of freedom of multi-photon qudit [25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35]. Using the photon number of vertical polarization as encoding, the definition of polarization qudit could be expressed as |j n ≡ |(n − j − 1)H, jV , for j = 0, · · · , n − 1, where n is the dimension, and H and V represent the horizontal and vertical polarizations.…”
