We demonstrate the creation, characterization, and manipulation of frequency-entangled qudits by shaping the energy spectrum of entangled photons. The generation of maximally entangled qudit states is verified up to dimension d=4 through tomographic quantum-state reconstruction. Subsequently, we measure Bell parameters for qubits and qutrits as a function of their degree of entanglement. In agreement with theoretical predictions, we observe that for qutrits the Bell parameter is less sensitive to a varying degree of entanglement than for qubits. For frequency-entangled photons, the dimensionality of a qudit is ultimately limited by the bandwidth of the pump laser and can be on the order of a few millions.
