- Abstract: Photons occupying multiple spatial modes hold a great promise for
implementing high-dimensional quantum communication. We use spontaneous
four-wave mixing to generate multimode photon pairs in a few mode fiber. We
show the photons are correlated in the fiber mode basis using an all-fiber mode
sorter. Our demonstration offers an essential building block for realizing
high-dimensional quantum protocols based on standard, commercially available
fibers, in an all-fiber configuration.

We find a solution with at most one photon for arbitrary number of qubits and photon modes.
This corresponds to a horizontal line in the spectrum, while still being a qubit-photon entangled state.
As a possible application, we propose an adiabatic scheme for the fast generation of arbitrary single-photon multimode W states.
