We experimentally demonstrate a quantum state estimation and tomography for qubits encoded in a single photon’s spatial degree of freedom. The experimental setup depicted in Fig. 1 consists of: 1) polarization entangled photon pairs source; 2) spatial encoder allowing to map a polarization state into spatial state; 3) polarization analyzer and 4) spatial state analyzer. The 28 element spatial quantum state measurement set was implemented using imaging optics and a linear array of 28 single photon avalanche diodes (SPAD) [1]. The timing information from all the detectors was acquired using custom made FPGA electronics.
