• Abstract: Quantum light sources play a vital role in various aspects of quantum information science, but on-demand high-efficient generation of arbitrary multiphoton states which can be easily integrated is still challenging. Here, we propose a chip-integrable scheme to deterministically generate a group of n photons with very high fidelity based on the long-range collective interaction between the emitters mediated by the waveguide modes. The n photons are shown to be emitted in a bundle while two successive n-photon bundles tend to be antibunched which can behave as an n-photon gun. Our results here can find important applications in the areas such as photonic-chip-based quantum information processing and quantum metrology.

  Multi-photon interference is at the heart of photonic quantum technologies. Here, we experimentally demonstrate that detection can be implemented with a temporal resolution sufficient to interfere photons detuned on the scales necessary for cavity-based integrated photon sources. We show how time-resolved detection of non-ideal photons can be used to improve the fidelity of an entangling operation and to mitigate the reduction of computational complexity in boson sampling experiments.

  We propose a scheme that generates multi-photon bundles via virtual excitations in a quantum Rabi model. We show that the driving pulses induce deterministic emission of multiple photons from the eigenstates of the quantum Rabi model. We calculate the generalized second-order correlation functions of the output photons, which reveal that the emitted photons form antibunched multi-photon bundles.
