  A lithium niobate-on-insulator (LNOI) integrated photonic circuit generates a two-photon path-entangled state, and a programmable interferometer for quantum interference. We generate entangled photons with $sim2.3times108$ pairs/s/mW brightness and perform quantum interference experiments on the chip with $96.8pm3.6%$ visibility. Our results provide a path towards large-scale integrated quantum photonics including efficient photon-pair generation and programmable circuits for applications such as boson sampling and quantum communications.
