• Abstract: We experimentally demonstrate a programmable parametric mode sorter of high-dimensional signals in a composite spatiotemporal Hilbert space through mode-selective quantum frequency up-conversion. As a concrete example and with quantum communication applications in mind, we consider the Laguerre-Gaussian and Hermite-Gaussian modes as the spatial and temporal state basis for the signals, respectively. By modulating the spatiotemporal profiles of the up-conversion pump, we demonstrate the faithful selection of single photons in those modes and their superposition modes. Our results show an improvement in the quantum mode-sorting performance by coupling the up-converted light into a single-mode fiber and/or operating the upconversion at the edge of phase matching. By optimizing pump temporal profiles only, we achieve more than 12 dB extinction for mutually unbiased basis (MUB) sets of the spatiotemporal modes. This fully programmable and efficient system could serve as a viable resource for quantum communications, quantum computation, and quantum metrology.

  We experimentally generate entangled photonic modes by continuously exciting a quantum emitter, a superconducting qubit, with a coherent drive.

  spatial modes of light provide a high-dimensional space that can be used to encode both classical and quantum information. Current approaches for dynamically generating and measuring these modes are slow, due to the need to reconfigure a high-resolution phase mask. We experimentally realize this approach, using a double-pass AOM to generate one of five orbital angular momentum states. We are able to reconstruct arbitrary states in under 1 ms with an average fidelity of 96.9%.

This efficiently generates a series of squeezed higher-order Hermite-Gauss modes and a squeezed arbitrary complex amplitude distributed mode.
