Telecommunications-band heralded single photons from a silicon nanophotonic chip
Marcelo Davanco, Jun Rong Ong, Andrea Bahgat Shehata +7
We demonstrate heralded single photon generation in a CMOS-compatible silicon nanophotonic device. The strong modal confinement and slow group velocity provided by a coupled resona…
