Abstract
Quantum communication consists of the reliable transmission of quantum states among several parties and looks toward the long-term goal of a Quantum Internet. Quantum Internet could open up a whole universe of new applications, spanning from fundamental physics and secure communications to remote quantum computing. Multiple degrees of freedom can be used for the distribution of the quantum states, such as polarization, frequency, time and space. In particular, Orbital Angular Momentum (OAM) of light is one of the most promising thanks to its unbounded nature, albeit challenging to manipulate. OAM has been largely investigated both for classical and quantum communications, allowing for enhanced data rate in classical links and determining a high-dimensional basis for quantum communication.Here, we report our recent results related to quantum states encoded in the orbital angular momentum of light, proving the capability of preparing, manipulating, transmitting and measuring high-dimensional quantum states through a multimode fibre.
