Fig. 1. The integrated photonic circuit for generation and manipulation of flying qudits.

Caption

The signal photon, manipulated by the integrated photonic circuit, creates a 4D qudit represented by the set of orange spheres. Meanwhile, the idler photon, represented by the blue sphere, acts as a remote control for the signal photon.
