Artist’s representation of the implemented photonic experiment in which entanglement between the polarizations of individual photons is mediated by the independent degree of freedom of the photon path. In particular, mediated entanglement represents a core principle of future experiments with massive particles, aiming to explore the quantumness of gravity for the first time.

This article was reviewed according to Science fact checked peer-reviewed publication trusted source proofread OK! The photonic lantern is designed to convert losslessly between optical sources and modes by optimizing the converging waveguide structure using adaptive learning algorithms and optical simulations. The structure is then printed onto a multi-core fiber source using direct laser writing … Read more
