Certifying High Dimensional Quantum Entanglement with a Time-Stamping Camera
High-dimensional entanglement is a promising resource for quantum technologies [1], [2]. Being able to certify it for any quantum state is essential. However, to date, experimental entanglement certification methods are imperfect and leave some loopholes open, due to the presence of accidental coincidences and the hypotheses necessary for their subtraction in post-processing [3], [4]. We present here an experimental study of the role of these accidentals depending on the temporal resolution of the coincidence detection apparatus. Our results show that high-dimensional entanglement certification can be achieved without accidental subtraction using current single-photon camera technologies. Using the recently developed time-stamping Tpx3Cam camera [5], we certify high-dimensional entanglement without accidental subtraction in under 16 seconds. In our experiment, we measure position-momentum Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) [6] correlations in pairs of photons generated by Spontaneous Parametric Down Conversion (SPDC) by collecting all spatial output modes simultaneously on the camera. We achieved an EPR factor of <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$0.13 < 1/2$</tex>, which allows us to certify entanglement.
