We present a new scheme to generate high dimensional entanglement between two photonic systems. The idea is based on parametric down conversion with a sequence of pump pulses generated by a mode-locked laser. We prove experimentally the feasibility of this scheme by performing a Franson-type Bell test using a 2-way interferometer with path-length difference equal to the distance between 2 pump pulses. With this experiment, we can demonstrate entanglement for a two-photon state of at least dimension D=11. Finally, we propose a feasible experiment to show a Fabry-Perot like effect for a high dimensional two-photon state.

Multipartite entangled states are key elements for quantum information processing. Here we experimentally investigate the particular properties of a polarization-entangled four-photon state, which can be generated directly by second order parametric down-conversion. The perfect correlations and the invariance under local transformations enable one to encode one qubit of quantum information in a decoherence-free subspace and thus to communicate it safely over noisy quantum channels. Furthermore, we present an experimental method to detect genuine fourpartite entanglement using entanglement witness operators. The implementation of such operators requires only of few local polarization measurements but uniquely proves the genuine multipartite entanglement.
