Experimental realization of entangled qutrits for quantum communication

Published: 01 March 2004 Publication History

Abstract

We have experimentally realizerd a technique to generate, control and measure entan-gled qutrits, 3-dimensional quantum systems. This scheme uses spontaneous parametricdown converted photons and unbalanced 3-arm fiber optic interferometers in a schemeanalogous to the Franson interferometric arrangement for qubits. The results reveal asource capable of generating maximally entangled states with a net state fidelity F =0.985 ± 0.018, Further the control over the system reveals a high, net, 2-photon interfer-ence fringe visibility, V = 0.919 ± 0.026. This has all been done at telecom wavelengthsthus facilitating the advancement towards long distance higher dimensional quantumcommunication.
