• Abstract: The ability to manipulate light at the level of single photons, its elementary excitation quanta, has recently made it possible to produce a rich variety of tailor-made quantum states and arbitrary quantum operations, of high interest for fundamental science and applications. Here we present a concise review of the progress made over the last few decades in the engineering of quantum light states. Although far from exhaustive, this review aims at providing a sufficiently wide and updated introduction that may serve as the entry point to such a fascinating and rapidly evolving field.

  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.
