Preparing arbitrary pure states of spatial qudits with a single phase-only spatial light modulator
Spatial qudits are D-dimensional (D . 2) quantum systems carrying information encoded in the discretized transverse momentum and position of single photons. We present a proof-of-principle demonstration of a method for preparing arbitrary pure states of such systems by using a single phase-only spat...

Spatial qudits are D-dimensional (D . 2) quantum systems carrying information encoded in the discretized transverse momentum and position of single photons.

The method relies on the encoding of the complex transmission function corresponding to a given spatial qudit state onto a preset diffraction order of a phase-only grating function addressed at the SLM.
