Photonic quantum information experiments demand bright and highly entangled photon pair sources. The combination of periodic poling and collinear excitation geometry allows the use of considerably longer crystals for parametric down-conversion. We demonstrate a picosecond-pulsed laser pumped source of high quality polarization entangled photon pairs. The phase of the output biphoton state is affected by the relative phase of the two-color interferometer and the phase of the nonlinearly interacting Gaussian beams. We measure the influence of these onto the phase of the output state. The presented source is a promising candidate for a compact, semiconductor laser driven source of entangled photon pairs.

Given their molecular properties and electronic structure, graphyne and graphdiyne are promising materials with numerous applications in different fields of material science. Dehydrobenzoannules (DBAs) are candidates that can serve as building blocks for synthesizing and designing new 2D carbon allotropes; however, only a few graphynes have been produced on a practical scale. Herein, we present our investigation of three DBAs, which serve as a model to understand the relationship between the structure and property, contributing to 2D carbon allotropes' rational design and synthetic effort.

Direct interactions between quantum particles naturally fall off with distance. However, future quantum computing architectures are likely to require interaction mechanisms between qubits across a range of length scales. In this work, we demonstrate a coherent interaction between two semiconductor spin qubits 250 μm apart using a superconducting resonator.

Photonics offers a promising platform for quantum computing, owing to the availability of chip integration for mass-manufacturable modules, fibre optics for networking and room-temperature operation of most components. However, experimental demonstrations are needed of complete integrated systems comprising all basic functionalities for universal and fault-tolerant operation. Here we construct a (sub-performant) scale model of a quantum computer using 35 photonic chips to demonstrate its functionality and feasibility.

Entangled photon-pair sources are pivotal in various quantum applications. Miniaturizing the quantum devices to meet the requirement in limited space applications drives the search for ultracompact entangled photon-pair sources. The rise of two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors has been demonstrated as ultracompact entangled photon-pair sources.

Hybrid continuous-variable (CV) and discrete-variable (DV) entanglement is an essential quantum resource of hybrid quantum information processing, which enables one to overcome the intrinsic limitations of CV and DV quantum protocols. Besides CV and DV quantum variables, introducing more degrees of freedom provides a feasible approach to increase the information carried by the entangled state. Among all the degrees of freedom of photons, orbital angular momentum (OAM) has potential applications in enhancing the communication capacity of quantum communication and precision of quantum measurement.
