Orbital-Angular-Momentum Multiplexed Continuous-Variable Entanglement from Four-Wave Mixing in Hot Atomic Vapor. 
Multiplexing is crucial for the data-carrying capacity of information communication systems.  Orbital angular momentum (OAM) with a topological charge ℓ (ℓ integer) provides a degree of freedom to realize multiplexing.  In this Letter, we report an experimental implementation of OAM multiplexed continuous variables (CV) entanglement based on a four-wave mixing (FWM) process, in which 13 pairs of entangled Laguerre-Gauss (LG) modes, LG_{ℓ,pr} and LG_{-ℓ,conj}, are simultaneously and deterministically generated, where ℓ (ℓ integer) is the topological charge corresponding to the OAM mode and pr (conj) indicates a probe (conjugate) beam.  In the meanwhile, we experimentally show that there is no entanglement between the modes of LG_{ℓ,pr} and LG_{ℓ,conj} (ℓ≠0).  These results clearly confirm the conservation of OAM in the FWM process from the viewpoint of a CV system.  In addition, we investigate the entanglement properties of three types of coherent superposition of OAM modes.  In the end, we also study the effect of the pump beam radius on the number of OAM multiplexing.  Such OAM multiplexed CV entanglement provides a new perspective and platform to study CV quantum information protocols.
