The standard benchmark for high-dimensional entanglement is the number of dimensions in which entanglement must be present in order to generate the state. This is called the Schmidt number and its detection is usually based on implementing an appropriate set of local basis measurements. However, as quantum technology brings increasingly large physical dimensions within reach, the implementation of such measurements typically becomes more costly. Here, we develop a scheme for detecting Schmidt numbers based only on sequences of single-qubit observables. These measurements are simpler to implement as they require only low-depth quantum circuits. Using up to sixteen-dimensional photonic spatial mode entanglement and multi-plane light conversion technology, we demonstrate how it simplifies setup complexity and successfully detects the maximal (or close-to-maximal) Schmidt number. Our results reveal that simple and more scalable measurements are sufficient to detect high-dimensional entanglement properties.
The dimensionality of entanglement in high-dimensional quantum systems is quantified by the Schmidt number, whose large value signals potential advantages for quantum communication and quantum computation. A commonly used approach to practical Schmidt-number detection in finite-dimensional systems is based on the estim...

High-dimensional quantum entanglement offers significant advantages over its two-dimensional counterparts in various quantum information processing tasks. We propose a scalable method for implementing an arbitrary high-dimensional entanglement purification protocol (HDEPP) using path superposition. By selecting appropr...

We search a simplest and minimal way to determine whether a given quantum system is entangled or separable. For this end, we propose binary correlation measurements in which restricted knowledge of only zero or non-zero correlations is available. We consider the concrete investigation on a pure state for two particles,...

Identifying the entanglement structure of a many-body quantum state, namely how its constituents partition into unentangled blocks, is a central task in quantum information science, yet conventional tomography scales exponentially with system size. Here we introduce a scalable framework that recognizes large-scale enta...
Entangled photons play a crucial role in quantum applications, and determining and characterising their entanglement is vital to using them effectively. High-dimensional entangled states offer richer possibilities, but their additional measurement degrees of freedom make them increasingly demanding to characterise. How...
