Abstract

We report minimal quantum state tomography with spatial qubits created by a pair of parametric down converted twin-photons passing through a double-slit. A novel experimental setup is used, which includes a Spatial Light Modulator, as a fundamental tool, to reconstruct the state density matrix. The theory needed to perform a minimal quantum tomography is described. The density matrix is experimentally obtained for the two-qubit photonic states in spatial variables.

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • All experiments and proposals for experiments implementing SIC POMs up to date have been limited to the two-level system (qubit), with the exception of one where a SIC POM for a three-level system was approximated.

    “In contrast to the major theoretical progress, up to date, all experiments and even proposals for experiments implementing SIC POMs have been limited to the very basic quantum system, the two-level system (qubit) [10, 11], with the exception of [12] where a SIC POM for a three-level system was approximated.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
