Abstract

Bessel-Gaussian (BG) modes possess unique characteristics that have been exploited in the classical world and which may also offer advantages over other modes in the quantum regime. The easily adjustable radial scale of BG modes provides a more favourable basis of orbital angular momentum (OAM) entanglement over Laguerre- Gaussian (LG) modes, where the radial dependence is often ignored. We demonstrate high-dimensional entanglement with the BG modes and show a higher fidelity than the LG modes. We use the reconstruction property of BG modes to recover the degree of entanglement of our quantum state after encountering an obstruction. By moving the obstruction along the path of propagation of the entangled photon pairs, we quantitatively show a increase in the degree of entanglement as the obstruction was moved beyond that minimum distance.
