On-chip parallel processing of quantum frequency combs for high-dimensional hyper-entanglement generation

High-dimensional encoding and hyper-entanglement are unique features that distinguish optical photons from other quantum information carriers, leading to improved system efficiency and novel quantum functions. However, the disparate requirements to control different optical degrees of freedom have prevent the development of complete integrated platforms that is capable of leveraging the complementary benefits of high-dimensional encoding and hyper-entanglement at the same time. Here we demonstra...
