• Abstract summary: We demonstrate a gallium nitride (GaN) microring based quantum light generation in the telecom C-band. In our demonstration, the GaN microring has a free spectral range of 330 GHz and a near-zero anomalous dispersion region of over 100 nm. Our results pave the way for developing chip-scale quantum photonic circuit.

• Abstract: Integrated quantum light source is increasingly desirable in large-scale quantum information processing.~Despite recent remarkable advances, new material platform is constantly being explored for the fully on-chip integration of quantum light generation, active and passive manipulation, and detection. Here, for the first time, we demonstrate a gallium nitride (GaN) microring based quantum light generation in the telecom C-band, which has potential towards the monolithic integration of quantum light source.~In our demonstration, the GaN microring has a free spectral range of 330 GHz and a near-zero anomalous dispersion region of over 100 nm. The generation of energy-time entangled photon pair is demonstrated with a typical raw two-photon interference visibility of 95.5$\pm$6.5%, which is further configured to generate heralded single photon with a typical heralded second-order auto-correlation $g^{(2)}_{H}(0)$ of 0.045$\pm$0.001. Our results pave the way for developing chip-scale quantum photonic circuit.
