Integrated photonic sources of frequency-bin-encoded multipartite entangled states

Quantum Physics 2023-05-04 v1

Abstract

We demonstrate that genuine multipartite entangled states can be generated using frequency bin encoding in integrated photonic platforms. We introduce a source of four-photon GHZ states, and a source of three-photon W states. We predict generation rates on the order of 104^4 Hz for a silicon microring source with milliwatt pump powers. These results, along with the versatility and scalability of integrated structures, identify this as a promising approach for the generation of higher-dimensional and larger entangled states.
