Abstract

Correlated photons generated in nonlinear waveguides have the potential of achieving high visibility of polarization interference while retaining strong correlations in the number of produced photons. In fact, correlated photons in engineered single-mode wave packets could be used to prepare entangled state in the event-ready manner, without the usual strong vacuum contribution. This would provide a conditional source of deterministic entanglement in the photonic domain, a constructional primitive for quantum computing based on linear optics.
