• Abstract summary: We show that entanglement in the angle-orbital angular momentum (OAM) bases exhibits a remarkably different behaviour. We demonstrate this behaviour and show that entanglement returns even in the presence of strong turbulence. This work highlights the role that OAM-angle entanglement will play in applications where quantum information is shared over long distances.

• Abstract: The practical implementation of free-space quantum information tasks requires entanglement to be sustained over long distances and in the presence of turbulent and noisy environments. The transverse position-momentum entanglement of photon pairs produced by parametric down-conversion has found several uses in quantum information science, however, it is not suitable for applications involving long-distance propagation as the entanglement decays very rapidly when photons propagate away from their source. Entanglement is lost after a few centimetres of propagation, and the effect becomes even more pronounced in turbulent environments. In contrast, in this article, we show that entanglement in the angle-orbital angular momentum (OAM) bases exhibits a remarkably different behaviour. As with the position-momentum case, initially, the angle-OAM entanglement decays with propagation, but as the photons continue to travel further from the source, the photons regain their strongly correlated behaviour, and the entanglement returns. We theoretically and experimentally demonstrate this behaviour and show that entanglement returns even in the presence of strong turbulence. The only effect of turbulence is to increase the propagation distance for revival, but once revived, the two photons remain entangled up to an arbitrary propagation distance. This work highlights the role that OAM-angle entanglement will play in applications where quantum information is shared over long distances.

  Twisted photons carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) are competent candidates for future interstellar communications. It is seen that the OAM cannot remain conserved in the presence of gravitational fluctuations. It is revealed that the higher-dimensional OAM entanglement is more susceptible to spacetime fluctuations.
