Abstract

Future quantum computers require a scalable architecture on a scalable technology—one that supports millions of high-performance components. Measurement-based protocols, using graph states, represent the state of the art in architectures for optical quantum computing. Silicon photonics technology offers enormous scale and proven quantum optical functionality. Here we produce and encode photonic graph states on a mass-manufactured chip, using four on-chip-generated photons. We programmably generate all types of four-photon graph state, implementing a basic measurement-based protocol, and measure high-visibility heralded interference of the chip’s four photons. We develop a model of the device and bound the dominant sources of error using Bayesian inference. The combination of measurement-based quantum computation, silicon photonics technology, and on-chip multi-pair sources will be a useful one for future scalable quantum information processing with photons.

  • The first experimental demonstrations of Boson sampling were reported with n = 3 photons, mainly in integrated photonics.

    “The first experimental demonstrations of Boson sampling were reported with n = 3 photons [91-95], mainly in integrated photonics.”

    From Integrated photonic quantum technologies (2020) · cites this paper as [93]

    The Introduction discusses photon scattering in silicon photonics, and the Results describe four-photon interference, but neither addresses the first experimental demonstrations of Boson sampling. Searches for three-photon Boson sampling and integrated-photonics demonstrations found no passage establishing the claim. (LLM, conf=0.76)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
