Hyperentangled photonic states-exhibiting nonclassical correlations in several degrees of freedom-offer improved performance of quantum optical communication and computation schemes. Experimentally, a hyperentanglement of transverse-wave-vector and spectral modes can be obtained in a straightforward way with multimode parametric single-photon sources. Nevertheless, experimental characterization of such states remains challenging. Not only single-photon detection with high spatial resolutiona single-photon camera-is required, but also a suitable mode converter to observe the spectral-temporal degree of freedom. We experimentally demonstrate a measurement of full four-dimensional transverse-wave-vector-spectral correlations between pairs of photons produced in noncollinear spontaneous parametric downconversion. Utilization of a custom ultrafast single-photon camera provides high resolution and a short measurement time.
