摘要

Abstract

The examination of entanglement across various degrees of freedom has been pivotal in augmenting our understanding of fundamental physics

extending to high dimensional quantum states

and promising the scalability of quantum technologies. In this paper

we demonstrate the photon number path entanglement in the frequency domain by implementing a frequency beam splitter that converts the single-photon frequency to another with 50% probability using Bragg scattering four-wave mixing. The two-photon NOON state in a single-mode fiber is generated in the frequency domain

manifesting the two-photon interference with two-fold enhanced resolution compared to that of single-photon interference

showing the outstanding stability of the interferometer. This successful translation of quantum states in the frequency domain will pave the way toward the discovery of fascinating quantum phenomena and scalable quantum information processing.
