dc.description.abstract | Recent schemes to encode quantum information into the total angular momentum of light, defining
rotation-invariant hybrid qubits composed of the polarization and orbital angular momentum degrees of
freedom, present interesting applications for quantum information technology. However, there remains the
question as to how detrimental effects such as random spatial perturbations affect these encodings. Here, we
demonstrate that alignment-free quantum communication through a turbulent channel based on hybrid
qubits can be achieved with unit transmission fidelity. In our experiment, alignment-free qubits are
produced with q-plates and sent through a homemade turbulence chamber. The decoding procedure, also
realized with q-plates, relies on both degrees of freedom and renders an intrinsic error-filtering mechanism
that maps errors into losses. | |
