• Abstract: We consider the probabilistic generation of time-bin photon number states from a train of single photon pulses. We propose a simple interferometric feedback loop setup having a beam splitter and a possibly non-idel detector. This Hong-Ou-Mandel type scheme implements iterated photon additions. Our detailed study shows that up to 4 photons this simple setup can provide reasonable success probabilities and fidelities.

  We present an experiment that reaches single shot photocounting and number tracking owing to a cavity decay rate 4 orders of magnitude smaller than both the dispersive coupling rate and the qubit emission rate. We observe quantum jumps by monitoring the photon number via the qubit fluorescence as photons leave the cavity one at a time.

  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.

  A scheme for the enhanced generation of higher photon-number states is realized, using an optical time-multiplexing setting. We use a quantum feedback mechanism for already generated photons to induce self-seeding of the consecutive nonlinear process. We compare the fidelities and success probabilities of our protocol with the common direct heralding of photon-number states.
