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…
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…
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…
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…
