Our Research: BB84 in a High-Dimensional State Space
• Instead of using the two-dimensional state space of polarization, we usea (potentially) infinite dimensional state space of the orbital angular mo-mentum (OAM) modes of the photon.
• One motivation is to send more than one bit of information per photon.
• Another motivation is to increase the security of the protocol.

What Are the Orbital Angular Momentum (OAM) States of Light?
t Light can carry spin angular momentum (SAM) by means of its circularpolarization.
t Light can also carry orbital angular momentum (OAM) by means of thephase winding of the optical wavefront.
t A well-known example are the Laguerre-Gauss modes. These modescontain a phase factor of exp(ilφ ) and carry angular momentum of h̄k perphoton. (Here φ is the azimuthal coordinate.)

Laguerre-Gauss Modes
The paraxial approximation to the Helmholtz equation (∇2 + k2)E(k) = 0 givesthe paraxial wave equation which is written in the cartesian coordinate system as

The paraxial wave equation is satisfied by the Laguerre-Gaussian modes, a familyof orthogonal modes that have a well defined orbital angular momentum. The fieldamplitude LGl
p(ρ, φ, z) of a normalized Laguerre-Gaussian modes is given by

We are developing a free-space quantum key distribution system that can carry many bits per photon (think about it!).
We encode either in the Laguerre-Gauss modes or in their linear superpositions (or in other transverse modes).
We are developing means to mitigate the influence of atmospheric turbulence

Why We Need to Encode in Azimuth and Radius
• Large telescopes are expensive; we want to make full use of our resources
This? Or this?
• In concept we want to encode in communication modes, but for large Fresnel numbers they approximate Laguerre-Gauss modes.
• Laguerre-Gauss modes are described by two mode indices, one (l) for azimuthal variation and one (p) for radial variation.
• We can roughly square the size of Hilbert space by encoding in both l and p.
• Miles Padgett showed earlier how to sort in l . Only recently have people shown how to sort in p.

• New quantum-state sorters for full Laguerre-Gauss determination allow enhanced performance in free-space quantum communications.
• This technology is useful more generally in advanced imaging by allowing a complex optical field to be decomposed into a complete set of orthogonal modes.
