We study the impact of experimental imperfections in integrated photonic circuits. We discuss the emergence of a moderate biased error in path encoding, and investigate its correlation with properties of the optical paths. Our analysis connects and deepens previous studies in this direction, revealing potential issues for high-precision tests and optical implementations of machine learning.

We numerically investigate the implementation of Haar-random unitarity transformations and Fourier transformations in photonic devices consisting of beam splitters and phase shifters, which are used for integrated photonics implementations of boson s ampling. The distribution of reflectivities required to implement an arbitrary unitary transformation is skewed towards low values, and this skew becomes stronger the larger the number of modes. A realistic implementation using Mach-Zehnder interferometers is incapable of doing this perfectly and thus has limited fidelity. We show that numerical optimisation and adding extra beam splitters to the network can help to restore fidelity.
We propose a machine learning method to characterize photonic states via a simple optical circuit and the data processing of photon number distributions as photonic patterns. The input states consist of two coherent states used as references and a tw o-mode unknown state to be studied. We successfully trained a supervised learning algorithm to predict the degree of entanglement in the two-mode state and to perform the full tomography of one photonic mode, obtaining good accuracy and an $r$-factor performance of our algorithm $r > 0.75$.
We use the numerical optimization techniques of Uskov et al. [PRA 81, 012303 (2010)] to investigate the behavior of the success rates for KLM style [Nature 409, 46 (2001)] two- and three-qubit entangling gates. The methods are first demonstrated at p erfect fidelity, and then extended to imperfect gates. We find that as the perfect fidelity condition is relaxed, the maximum attainable success rates increase in a predictable fashion depending on the size of the system, and we compare that rate of increase for several gates.
Topological photonics has been introduced as a powerful platform for integrated optics, since it can deal with robust light transport, and be further extended to the quantum world. Strikingly, valley-contrasting physics in topological photonic struct ures contributes to valley-related edge states, their unidirectional coupling, and even valley-dependent wave-division in topological junctions. Here, we design and fabricate nanophotonic topological harpoon-shaped beam splitters (HSBSs) based on $120$-deg-bending interfaces and demonstrate the first on-chip valley-dependent quantum information process. Two-photon quantum interference, namely, HongOu-Mandel (HOM) interference with a high visibility of $0.956 pm 0.006$, is realized with our 50/50 HSBS, which is constructed by two topologically distinct domain walls. Cascading this kind of HSBS together, we also demonstrate a simple quantum photonic circuit and generation of a path-entangled state. Our work shows that the photonic valley state can be used in quantum information processing, and it is possible to realize more complex quantum circuits with valley-dependent photonic topological insulators, which provides a novel method for on-chip quantum information processing.
Following the simple observation that the interconnection of a set of quantum optical input-output devices can be specified using structural mode VHSIC Hardware Description Language (VHDL), we demonstrate a computer-aided schematic capture workflow f or modeling and simulating multi-component photonic circuits. We describe an algorithm for parsing circuit descriptions to derive quantum equations of motion, illustrate our approach using simple examples based on linear and cavity-nonlinear optical components, and demonstrate a computational approach to hierarchical model reduction.
