Abstract
We present a deterministic nondestructive hyperentangled Bell state analysis protocol for photons entangled in three degrees of freedom (DOFs), including polarization, spatial-mode, and time-bin DOFs. The polarization Bell state analyzer and spatial-mode Bell state analyzer are constructed by polarization parity-check quantum nondemolition detector (P-QND) and spatial-mode parity-check quantum nondemolition detector (S-QND) using cross-Kerr nonlinearity, respectively. The time-bin Bell state analyzer is constructed by the swap gate for polarization state and time-bin state of a photon (P-T swap gate) and P-QND. The Bell states analyzer for one DOF will not destruct the Bell states of other two DOFs, so the polarization-spatial-time-bin hyperentangled Bell states can be determinately distinguished without destruction. This deterministic nondestructive state analysis method has useful applications in quantum information protocols.
