Quantum projectors are implemented withintegrated optical directional couplers fabricated by ion-exchangeK+/Na+ in soda-lime glass. We consider devices composed of concatenated directional couplers which implement N-dimensionalquantum projective measurements, and concomitantly the production of 1-qudit states. The fundamental units of these devices are 2× 2 directional couplers that are experimentally studied in orderto obtain, through an optical characterization, empiric relationships between fabrication and optical parameters of such couplers.Likewise, a two-dimensional quantum projector is demonstrated sothat projective measurements are obtained for the states of basesX (diagonal) and Y (circular) PB IEEE SN 0733-8724 YR 2022 FD 2022 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10347/30194 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10347/30194 LA eng NO X.
