摘要

Abstract

The hope for a futuristic global quantum internet that provides robust and high-capacity quantum information transfer lies largely on qudits

the fundamental quantum information carriers prepared in high-dimensional superposition states. However

preparing and manipulating N-dimensional flying qudits as well as subsequently establishing their entanglement are still challenging tasks

which require precise and simultaneous maneuver of 2 (N-1) parameters across multiple degrees of freedom. Here

using an integrated approach

we explore the synergy from two degrees of freedom of light

spatial mode and polarization

to generate

encode

and manipulate flying structured photons and their formed qudits in a four-dimensional Hilbert space with high quantum fidelity

intrinsically enabling enhanced noise resilience and higher quantum data rates. The four eigen spin–orbit modes of our qudits possess identical spatial–temporal characteristics in terms of intensity distribution and group velocity

thereby preserving long-haul coherence within the entirety of the quantum data transmission link. Judiciously leveraging the bi-photon entanglement

which is well preserved in the integrated manipulation process

we present versatile spin–orbit cluster states in an extensive dimensional Hilbert space. Such cluster states hold the promise for quantum error correction which can further bolster the channel robustness in long-range quantum communication.
