Photonic fusion operations transform partial distinguishability
S. N. van den Hoven, G. B. Lamers, J. J. Renema
Photonic fusion operations are a central primitive in photonic quantum information processing and are commonly characterized by their success probability and resource cost. Here, w…
Below-threshold error reduction in single photons through photon distillation
F. H. B. Somhorst, J. Saied, N. Kannan +14
Photonic quantum computers use the bosonic statistics of photons to construct, through quantum interference, the large entangled states required for measurement-based quantum compu…
Quantum advantage for single-photon state characterization
S. N. van den Hoven, M. C. Anguita, S. Marzban +1
We propose a multiphoton interference protocol that characterizes the pairwise overlaps of the internal modes of single photons more efficiently than pairwise Hong-Ou-Mandel charac…
Mitigating quantum operation infidelity through engineering the distribution of photon losses
F. H. B. Somhorst, J. J. Renema
Multiport interferometers can be constructed from two-port components in various configurations. We investigate how these configurations influence the performance of quantum operat…
Photon distillation schemes with reduced resource costs based on multiphoton Fourier interference
F. H. B. Somhorst, B. K. Sauër, S. N. van den Hoven +1
We present a scalable scheme to achieve photon distillation, i.e. the preparation of a single photon with reduced indistinguishability error out of multiple imperfect photons, base…
