Title: Spatial-Mode-Selective Frequency Conversion
We discuss wavelength conversion of a selected signal spatial mode, which preserves its quantum state and does not disturb other signal spatial modes. We present the results for a lithium niobate waveguide and a few-mode-fiber.  more » « less

    Aiming at producing spatial-mode-entangled photon pairs in a few-mode fiber, we experimentally demonstrate generation of idler beam from a seed signal in a superposition of two fiber modes. For every signal mode superposition, we observe the indication of idler mode orthogonality to the signal mode.

  2. We describe a novel scheme for spatial-mode-entangled photon-pair generation in a few-mode fiber. We experimentally verify the underlying inter-modal parametric processes with two-mode classical signal input and demonstrate high mode purity of the generated idler.

  3. We present a scheme for spatial-mode-selective frequency conversion in a few-mode fiber and experimentally demonstrate upconversion of either of two signal modes from C-band to fundamental mode in S-band with crosstalk below –15.5 dB.

    We present a scheme for spatial-mode-selective frequency conversion in a few-mode fiber and experimentally demonstrate upconversion of arbitrary superpositions of two signal modes from C-band to the fundamental mode in S-band with conversion efficiencies within 1 dB range of one another.

  5. Spatial-spectral holographic signal processing in cryogenically-cooled spectral-hole burning crystals allows modal-dispersion compensation of multiple orthogonally launched beams to enable wide- band mode-group multiplexing and demultiplexing in spatially-multiplexed multimode fiber networks.
