Abstract
Hyperentanglement, defined as the simultaneous entanglement in several independent degrees of freedom (DOFs) of a quantum system, is a fascinating resource in quantum information processing with its outstanding merits. Here we propose heralded hyperentanglement concentration protocols (hyper-ECPs) to concentrate an unknown partially less polarization-spatial hyperentangled Bell state with available linear optics and common single-photon detectors. By introducing time-delay DOFs, the schemes are highly efficient in that the success of the scheme can be accurately heralded by the detection signatures, and postselection techniques or photon-number-resolving detectors, necessary for previous experiments, are not required. Additionally, our linear optical architectures allow certain states, where concentration fails, to be recyclable, and a trick makes the success probabilities of our schemes higher than those of previous linear optical hyper-ECPs.
